After inserting your CD, wait a few seconds for it to be detected before
trying to access it.



Make sure you place the disc in the tray with the label side facing up.



Make sure the software is installed according to the program’s instructions.



If your drive reads some CDs, but not others, check the shiny side of the disc
for dirt or scratches. You may also need to clean the disc drive lens with an
appropriate cleaner.

Topic: I want to play a CD with my Microsoft CD Player.

When you insert a music CD, the Sony Media Bar™ automatically launches to
play your CD. When the Sony Media Bar is running, the Microsoft CD Player
does not have access to the CD. Close Media Bar to use the Microsoft CD Player.
If you do not hear any music, check all your volume controls.



You can toggle between the Normal (bi-directional), EPP, ECP, and ECP+EPP
options using the Plus (+) or Minus (-) keys.
