Using your notebook
36
When the computer is in
Standby
or
Hibernate
mode, you cannot insert or remove a disc.
Be sure to seat the disc firmly over the disc drive hub fingers. If you do not seat the disc firmly, you could damage your disc drive and you may not be
able to open the tray.
When you finish using a disc, wait until the LED indicator turns off and then press the eject button to remove the disc.
If the disc does not come out when you press the Eject button, go to
My Computer
. Select the drive, click the right button of your mouse and select
Eject
. If it still does not work, turn off the computer and insert a thin, pointed object into the manual eject hole.
Using the CD-RW function
To burn CDs, you can use CD-RW and CD-R discs:
The
CD-RW
(CD-ReWriteable) disc is a data memory medium that can be used to write, erase and rewrite
a program or other data.
The
CD-R
(CD-Recordable) disc is a data memory medium that can be used to write a program or other
data, but once only.
To achieve optimum performance when writing data on a CD-RW disc, follow these recommendations :
Before writing to a new CD-RW, you may have to first format the disc for your computer to recognise it.
This is not always the case.
