If for some reason the eject button fails, you can open the media tray with a paper clip inserted into the eject hole in the far right side of the front of the tray.

Straighten one side of a paper clip and push it gently into the hole. The tray will pop out a short distance.

PLAYING MEDIA ON THE OPTICAL DRIVE

There are three ways to operate the optical drive:

■Using the Optical Player Software

■Using the Media Player Buttons

■Using the Desktop Control Panel

■Using Microsoft Windows XP Media Center Edition (for systems with Media Center Edition installed)

■Prior to using your optical drive, you must install the optical player software. For details on using your optical player software, refer to the software Help file.

■High-definition (HD) DVDs cannot be

played using the Microsoft Windows XP Media Center Edition controls. To play HD DVD-ROMs, use the CyberLink PowerDVD application.

■If you have WIndows XP Media Center Edition installed, follow the on-screen instructions to operate the application.

■If you are running Windows XP Media Center Edition, the remote control over- rides the media player buttons; the media player buttons do not work while Media Center Edition is running.

Starting a DVD Movie

1.Insert the DVD into the notebook’s optical drive. If the CD AutoRun feature activates, skip Step 2.

2.The first time you insert a movie into the DVD/CD- RW tray, you will be prompted to select what you want the system to do when discs are inserted (e.g., start automatically or wait for a prompt). Until you make a selection, you will receive the same prompt whenever you insert a disc.

3.Click OK to close the About DVD Player Perfor- mance dialog box and the movie will begin. After you make your selections, the PowerDVD control panel will appear whenever you insert a disc.

Opening the DVD/CD-RW Drive Control Panel

With most DVD-ROMs, you have the option of altering how the movie should play and what you wish to view. You can do this by using the DVD/CD-RW Combo Drive control panel and the mouse.

To open a dropdown menu for options, right-click on the movie screen.
