Your Notebook’s DVD Drive reserves the best seat in the house for you, so you can watch all your favorite movies anytime, anywhere. The DVD Player is simple and fun to use.

You have two options for starting the DVD Player:

•Insert a DVD disc into the DVD drive. After a few seconds, the Compaq DVD Player control panel opens and playback begins.

•If a DVD disc is already inserted in the drive, start the DVD player by pressing the Play ® button on the Status panel on the front of your Notebook. The Compaq DVD Player control panel opens and playback begins.
