Playing an audio CD-ROM
Before putting on headphones to listen to an audio CD, turn
the volume dial down, and do not set the volume too high
when using the headphones. Continuous exposure to loud
sound can harm your hearing.
Insert an audio CD and close the disc tray. The CD begins to
play.
If the computer is turned on, Windows Media
®
Player opens
and the CD begins to play. You can use the Windows Media
Player program to control the CD.
To access the Windows Media Player, you can open it
through the Start menu or activate it from the taskbar.
Sample Windows Media Player screen
The CD Player control panel works much like an ordinary
compact disc player:
❖ To play the CD or to pause, click the Play/pause button
on the CD Player control panel.
❖ To stop the CD, click the Stop button.
