Step 10. Setting up your computer for DVD video playback

This section provides instructions on enabling DMA settings so you can play DVD movies with your DVD-ROM drive.

1.Right click on My Computer on the desktop or in the Start Menu.

2.Select Properties from the pop-up menu.

3.Check your operating system, and then follow the appropriate instructions for enabling DMA which are included in Appendix C, “Customizing the device-driver configuration settings” on page C-1.

vIf your operating system is Windows Me, follow the instructions under “Enabling DMA for Windows Me” on page C-1.

vIf your operating system is Windows 2000, follow the instructions under “Enabling DMA for Windows 2000” on page C-1.

vIf your operating system is Windows XP, follow the instructions under “Enabling DMA for Windows XP” on page C-2.

Using CD-R and CD-RW discs

The CD-RW/DVD-ROM Combination Drive can write to both CD-R and CD-RW discs. CD-RW discs can be erased and reused many times; CD-R discs can be written to only once.

RecordNow is used to copy CDs, create new data CDs, and produce new audio CDs that can be read by standard CD-RW drives and CD players.

DLA is used to make file archives and data CDs that can be altered many times. It also provides the convenience of direct drive-letter access. When used with CD-RW media, DLA is very much like using a floppy diskette to store files. If DLA is used with CD-R media, you can write and rewrite until the CD is full, and then the data becomes fixed. DLA-created media can be read only with newer CD-ROM drives and DVD-ROM drives that support multi-read mode.

Windows XP has built-in drag-and-drop support. This will work with your drive with no additional software. If you install DLA, the operating system built-in support is replaced by the DLA function, but can be enabled from the DLA menu on the drive letter.

A UDF reader might be required when using other operating systems to read unclosed media. Install the provided UDF reader on other systems that need to read the disc, not on yours.

22P6975 specifications

The IBM 22P6975 is a crucial component within the IBM information technology ecosystem, specifically designed to enhance the capabilities of IBM servers. It is a high-performance memory module that plays a significant role in improving overall system efficiency, reliability, and speed. Particularly, it is built to fit into IBM System x and BladeCenter systems, making it a versatile option for various configurations.

One of the standout features of the IBM 22P6975 is its DDR3 SDRAM technology. DDR3 memory is known for its data transfer rates and reduced power consumption compared to its predecessors. The 22P6975 operates at a speed of 1333 MHz, although it can also support speeds up to 1600 MHz, providing an efficient solution for demanding server applications. Its architecture supports improved bandwidth and lower latency, which are vital for performance-intensive tasks.

In terms of capacity, the IBM 22P6975 typically comes with a size of 4GB, allowing for ample memory space for running multiple applications and services simultaneously. The module is designed with a 240-pin DIMM form factor, making it easily installable in compatible server systems. The Registered ECC (Error-Correcting Code) feature is another significant advantage, as it enhances data integrity by detecting and correcting internal data corruption, thus ensuring maximum uptime and reliability for critical applications.

The memory module is also designed with thermal management in mind. It operates efficiently within a wide range of temperatures, making it suitable for enterprise environments where reliability is paramount. The IBM 22P6975 adheres to stringent industry standards and provides backward compatibility with earlier memory technologies, ensuring businesses can upgrade their systems without having to overhaul existing infrastructure.

Furthermore, the 22P6975 is part of IBM's commitment to sustainability, as it operates at lower power levels, which reduces energy consumption and operational costs. This feature not only benefits the environment but also contributes to the overall cost-effectiveness of maintaining a data center.

In summary, the IBM 22P6975 memory module is characterized by its advanced DDR3 technology, substantial memory capacity, ECC capabilities, and energy-efficient operation. It is an integral part of IBM's server solutions, delivering reliability and performance for businesses that require robust IT infrastructure.
