creating (burning) dvds using the dvd writer drive

The DVD Writer drive (select models only) plays movie DVDs and music CDs, reads data CDs and DVDs , and records (burns) files to DVD+RW, DVD+R, CD-R, and CD-RW discs.

NOTE: There are two types of DVD discs: DVD+RW/+R and DVD-R/-RW. DVD-R and DVD-RW discs do not work in the DVD Writer drive.

For steps to view a movie, see “playing dvd movies with the intervideo windvd player“ on page 55.

The guide for this drive is printed and included in the PC box (select models).

using a tv as a monitor

Your PC may have TV-out (select models only) capability, which means you can connect it to a television to view the computer image on a TV screen. With the TV- out feature, you can view the computer image, watch DVD movies (if you have a DVD player), or play games on your TV.

cables you may need

To connect a TV to the PC, you may need a video cable and an audio cable (not provided, purchase separately). The type of video cable you need depends on your TV:

If your TV has an S-video jack, you need an S-video cable.

If your TV has a composite video jack, you need a composite video cable and, depending on the jacks on the back of your PC, you may also need an S-video adapter cable.
