CHAPTER 9: Troubleshooting DVD drives Your notebook does not recognize a disc ■ The disc may not be seated correctly in the tray. When you place a disc on the tray, make sure that you press the disc firmly onto the spindle so the retainers hold the disc in place. ■ Make sure that the disc label is facing up, then try again. ■ If you are trying to play a DVD, make sure that you have a DVD drive. For more information, see "Identifying drive types" on page 32. ■ Try a different disc. Occasionally discs are flawed and cannot be read by the drive. ■ Some music CDs have copy protection software. You may not be able to play these CDs on your notebook. ■ Your notebook may be experiencing some temporary memory problems. Shut down and restart your notebook. ■ Clean the disc.
