Possible Solutions
When trying to access a CD,
error messages appear.
• The CD may be improperly placed in the drive. Make sure the CD was placed in the drive
with the label side of the disc facing up.
• The CD type and program type may not match. If you are trying to play music from your CD
drive, make sure that an audio CD is in the drive.
• The CD-ROM may not be able to read the CD. Try inserting another CD into the drive to
verify if the drive works. If the drive works, the CD may be damaged or may need cleaning.
• The CD may be damaged or may need cleaning. Check the CD for scratches, fingerprints, or
defects. If the CD is dirty, use a CD cleaning kit to clean the CD.
