Troubleshooting

The disc tray does not open.

●Is the CRW2200E drive powered up?

●Some CD writing software will lock the disc tray once loaded.

In this case, use the eject command from within the software. Alternatively, read the manual that came with the software.

The disc keeps being ejected.

●Has the disc been placed on the disc tray correctly?

The drive does not operate correctly.

●Is the disc compatible with the CRW2200E drive?

●Is there dust on the disc tray or on the disc itself?

●Does the computer have a sufficient power supply?

The CRW2200E drive has a power consumption of 11W (when reading and writing).

●Does your computer have several different CD writing software applications installed?

If you use more than one CD writing software application simultaneously, the behavior of the drive may become unpredictable.

●Is the CRW2200E drive connected to a high-speed device, such as a hard disk drive?

If you connect two devices with quite different speeds using the same cable, operation may become unstable.

The drive ejects or fails to read the disc, or the front panel LED remains lit in orange after the disc has been loaded (meaning that the disc has not been recognized). (→P. 37)

●Disconnect the IDE cable from the drive but leave the power cable connected, then load a disc.

●There may be problems with the disc itself. If the drive fails to recognize a variety of discs including audio CDs, CD-ROMs, and blank CD-R/RW discs (the front panel LED remains lit in orange after a disc is inserted), you should contact your nearest Yamaha dealer.
