Notebook fails to recognize
DVD/CD-RW/CD-ROM’s.
(continued)

DVD/CD-RW/CD-ROM is
dirty or defective.

Wipe the disc with a non-abrasive CD cleaning cloth
and reinsert. If it still will not work try another disc
in the drive.

The Optical drive access
indicator on the Status
Indicator Panel blinks at
regular intervals when no
disc is in the tray or the
optical drive is not
installed.

The Windows auto insertion
function is active and is
checking to see if a disc is ready
to run.

This is normal. However, you may disable this
feature.
