My CD-ROM/DVD-ROM/CD-RW drive tray does not open

Make sure the computer is turned on.

Press the Eject button on the drive.

Double-click the My Computer icon on the Windows desktop. Right- click the CD-ROM icon. Select the Eject option from the pop-up menu.

If the Eject button does not work, you can open the tray by inserting a straightened heavy-weight paper clip into the emergency eject hole.

I cannot play a CD-ROM

Make sure you place the disc in the tray with the label side facing up.

Make sure the software is installed according to the program’s instructions.

I cannot play a DVD-ROM

If a region code warning appears when you are using the DVD player, it could be that the DVD-ROM you are trying to play is incompatible with the DVD-ROM drive in your VAIO Digital Studio Computer. The region code is listed on the disc’s packaging. Region code indicators such as “1” or “ALL” are labeled on some DVDs to indicate what type of player can play the disc. Unless a “1” or “ALL” appears on the DVD or on the packaging, you cannot play the disc on this computer.

If you hear audio but cannot see video, your computer’s video resolution may be set too high. For best results, change the Windows Control Panel/Display/Settings to 800 x 600 using 16-bit color.
