Playing CDs
If you insert a CD/DVD into the optical drive and the Auto-
Run feature does not automatically start your disc, try
launching the CD/DVD manually. To do this, follow these
steps:
1
Click Start, and then My Computer.
2
Click the optical drive icon.
The disc drive will run the CD/DVD.
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
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.
Creating a CD/DVD
Depending on the configuration, your computer may come
with a multi-function drive that allows you to:
❖

configuration) and music files to CD-Recordable (CD-R)
and CD-Rewritable (CD-RW) discs; and DVD
or DVD RAM discs.
