Learning the Basics
Using the optical disc drive
6 Make sure the disc is completely on the spindle and is lying flat
on the tray.
If you insert the disc incorrectly, it may jam the drive. If this happens,
contact Toshiba support for assistance.
7 Push the disc tray in by pressing gently on the center of the tray
until it clicks into place.
Removing a disc with the computer on
To remove an optical disc with the computer turned on:
1 Press the eject button on the drive.
Do not press the eject button while the drive in-use indicator light is
glowing. Doing so could damage the disc or the drive.
Also, if the disc is still spinning when you open the disc tray, wait for
it to stop spinning before you remove it.
2 Remove the disc, and place it in its protective cover.
3 Gently press the tray in to close it.
Playing optical media
If you insert an optical disc into the optical disc drive and the
Auto-Run feature does not automatically start your disc, try
launching the optical disc manually. To do this, follow these steps:
1 Press the ( ) +
E keys.
2 Double-click the optical disc drive icon.
The drive will run the optical disc.
If your disc does not run using this method, try using an application
that is associated with the media on the disc. For example, if it is a
music CD, open Windows Media
®
Player and use it to select and
then play the CD. For other types of media, use the associated
software to open the files on the disc.
