V. TROUBLESHOOTING General Problems PROBLEM CAUSES Unable to access DVD-ROM Drive. 1. The information in your CONFIG.SYS or AUTOEXEC.BAT or both files might be incorrect. (DOS only.) 2. Some BIOS that include power management features use IRQ14 or IRQ 15, which should be reserved for IDE devices like your CD-ROM Drive. (DOS only.) SOLUTIONS 1. Check the LASTDRIVE= entry in your CONFIG.SYS file. You might have to set the drive letter to one higher than your actual last drive letter.
V. TROUBLESHOOTING PROBLEM CAUSES No sound from speakers. 1. Audio cable or speakers are not connected properly. 2. The volume is not adjusted to an audible level. 3. The drive may be faulty. 4. The card may be faulty. SOLUTIONS 1. Check that the CD audio cable is connected to the Analog Audio line out connector on the drive and sound card. Check also that the pin definitions of your DVD-ROM Drive and sound card are the same.
V. TROUBLESHOOTING SOLUTIONS 1. Upgrade your benchmarking utility to one that supports tests on the outer tracks of your drive. Your DVD-ROM Drive uses Constant Angular Velocity (CAV) technology, wherein the spindle motor is running at the same velocity, while the drive is accessing data at the inner or outer tracks. In this way, the drive will achieve lower data transfer rates at the inner tracks and higher transfer rates at the outer tracks.
V. TROUBLESHOOTING 4. Your DVD-ROM drive reads data at different speeds depending on the disc format. Your DVD-ROM drive performs at its best when it is reading a CD-ROM or DVD-ROM format disc. With other formats, such as Audio CD or Video CD, data transfer rate performance may be slower than the maximum rate performance specified. PROBLEM CAUSE Cannot display the directory on an audio CD disc with the DIR command. The DIR command does not work with audio CD discs while in DOS.
