Playing DVDs

Sony

To achieve optimum performance when playing DVD-ROMs, you should follow these recommendations:

 

 

Close all open applications before playing a DVD-ROM movie.

 

You can play DVDs in both drives with the software PowerDVD for VAIO.

 

If you want to play a DVD and use Giga Pocket at the same time, please launch Giga Pocket before

 

PowerDVD for VAIO.

 

Do not switch power saving modes while playing a DVD-ROM.

 

Do not use resident disc utilities or other resident utilities to speed up the access of discs, because they

 

may cause the system to become unstable.

 

Make sure that the screensaver is deactivated.

 

Region codes indicators are labelled on the DVDs to indicate in which region and on what type of player

 

you can play the disc. Unless a 2 or ALL is labelled on your DVD or on the packaging, you cannot play

 

the disc on this player.

 

Do not try to change the region code settings of the DVD drive. Any difficulties caused by changing the

 

region code settings of the DVD drive are out of warranty.
