4. Using
Using a CD
A CD drive letter should be present after bootup regardless of a CD has been inserted. After the CD is
properly inserted, data can be accessed just like with hard disk drives; except that nothing can be written
to or changed on the CD.
Removing a CD
Remove the CD by slowly lifting the CD off the tray by holding the edge of the CD. Do not touch the
bottom-side of the CD where data is read.
Using the CD-ROM Drive
Compact Disc Read Only Memory (CD-ROM or CD) discs and equipment must be handled with care
because of the precise mechanics involved. Keep in mind the important safety instructions from your CD
suppliers. Unlike desktop CD drives, the Notebook PC uses a hub to hold the CD in place regardless of
the angle. When inserting a CD, it is important that the CD be pressed into the center hub or else the CD
drive tray cannot be closed.
Listening to Audio CD
Insert the audio CD and Windows will automatically open an audio player and begin playing. You can
adjust the volume through the function keys on the keypad or through double-clicking the Windows
speaker icon on the taskbar. Applications control the individual volume such as “CD Player” or “Wave”.
The main “Volume Control” controls the maximum limit which applications can use.
