Using optical media drives

The text and illustrations in this section refer primarily to the optical DVD-ROM drive. However, operation is the same for all other optical media drives. The full- size drive provides high-performance execution of CD/DVD-ROM-based pro- grams. You can run either 12 cm (4.72") or 8 cm (3.15") CD/DVDs without an adaptor. An ATAPI interface controller is used for CD/DVD-ROM operation. When the computer is accessing a CD/DVD-ROM, an indicator on the drive glows.

Note: Use the WinDVD application to view DVD-Video discs.

If you have a CD-RW/DVD-ROM drive, refer also to the Writing CDs on CD- RW/DVD-ROM drive section for precautions on writing to CDs.

If you have a DVD Super Multi drive(+-R Double Layer), refer also to the Writ- ing CD/DVDs on DVD Super Multi drive(+-R Double Layer) section for precau- tions on writing to CDs/DVDs.
