Learning the Basics
Using the optical drive
5.375 x 8.375 ver 2.3
and CD-Rewritable (CD-RW) discs; and DVD±R/±RW
or DVD RAM discs.
Due to manufacturing and quality variations in third party
optical media (e.g., CD or DVD) or optical media
players/recorders, in certain cases, your Toshiba optical
drive may not record on certain optical media that bear
the applicable logo, or playback optical media recorded
by other PCs or optical media recorders. Additionally,
certain optical media recorded on your optical drive may
not playback or operate properly on other PCs or optical
media players. These problems are not due to any defect
in your Toshiba PC or optical drive. Please refer to your
PC's product specification for listing of specific format
compatibilities.
Copy protection technology may also prevent or limit
recording or viewing of certain optical media.
For details on how to use the software, please refer to the
respective Online Help menus.
Removing a disc with the computer on
To remove a compact disc (CD or DVD) with the computer
turned on:
1 Press the eject button on the drive.
Do not press the eject button while the 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 Pull the tray out until it is fully open, remove the disc,
and place it in its protective cover.
3 Gently push the tray in to close it.
