Loading a CD into a vertically positioned desktop model The instructions in this section are for desktop models that are placed in a vertical position. If you have a desktop model and do not vertically position the computer, use the instructions in "Loading a CD" on page 41 when using the CD-ROM drive. Note: If you place the desktop model in a vertical position, use a floor stand to prevent damage to the computer due to overheating. A floor stand is an available option from IBM. Look for more information on the World Wide Web at: http://www.ibm.com/pc/us/options/ A CD-ROM drive in a vertically positioned desktop model is placed on its side. In order to load a CD into the drive securely, you must use the specific support mechanisms, such as extendable tabs or a support wire, provided with the drive. There are several CD-ROM drives available for your computer. They are alike except for the support mechanisms used to hold the CD in place when it is inserted into the CD-ROM drive. Use the information on the following pages to identify the CD-ROM drive in your computer and then use the accompanying instructions for loading and unloading a CD. Note: If the tray does not slide out of the drive when you press the Eject/Load button, insert the pointed end of a large paper clip into the emergency-eject hole located above and to the left of the CD-ROM indicator light. 42 Using Your Personal Computer
