Playing a DVD
❑To achieve optimum performance when playing DVDs, it is recommended that you close all open applications before playing a DVD movie.
❑When playing DVD movies on battery power, set the power management profile to DVD. With other profiles, the movies are choppy. As an alternative, you can set the power management profile to Automatic Profile Selection, which will cause the DVD profile to be selected automatically whenever you insert a DVD. See “Controlling Power Management” for information on how to set the power management profile.
❑You can play DVDs using the WinDVD software. See the help file that came with the WinDVD software for details.
❑Some discs recorded at 20 or 24 bits may produce noise while playing. If you have audio devices connected, this may cause damage to your hearing and the speakers. Reduce the volume before playing such discs..
✍Note the following for playing a DVD video:
❑Do not switch between LCD and external display while playing a DVD video.
❑Do not put your notebook into power saving mode while playing a DVD video.
❑Do not install the software that comes with DVD 51A drive.
