CD or DVD Drive
Symptom Problem Solution
CD/DVD drive
cannot read a disc or
takes too long to
start. The DVD drive takes
longer to start
because it must
determine the type of
media being played
before it can start. Wait at least
30 seconds to let the
DVD drive determine
the type of media
being played. If disc
still does not start,
refer to the “Online
Help and Support”
section found earlier
in this chapter.
DVD player
performance is poor
when running other
programs
simultaneously. DVD playback
requires large
amounts of
processing power;
therefore, the system
cannot process other
tasks simultaneously
at maximum
performance. To provide maximum
performance, close
all other programs
while playing DVD
media. It may also
be necessary to
restart Windows to
free all resources.
Display is corrupted
when playing some
DVD movies. Copyright material at
beginning of movie
causes momentary
corruption. Wait a few seconds
for video corruption
to clear up. If it does
not clear up, then
stop and restart the
DVD movie.
