Reference Manual “CD/DVD Drive”

NOTE

Regarding Windows XP

You can select the Classic view of Control Panel or the Classic Start menu. You can also change the way a user logs

on or off. This manual explains using the Windows XP default setting (not Classic view or Classic Start menu etc.).

Windows Update

You can update to the latest patches and service packs for Windows with the following menus.

[start] - [All Programs] - [Windows Update]

Do not apply “Driver Updates” even if a message to update a driver appears. If a driver update is required,

contact your technical support office.

If the message “Your computer might be at risk” is displayed
Select

(red icon) on the notification area and make the appropriate settings. The Windows Security Center reg-

ularly gives you notice so that you can make the optimum settings. This is not an error message and you can use the

computer. However, making appropriate measures is recommended to reduce the risk of virus and other attacks.

If you hear the sounds from CD/DVD drive

In the following situations, the sounds from the CD/DVD drive can be heard.

• Immediately after the CD/DVD drive is turned on

• Just after turning on the computer with [DVD Drive Power] set to [On] in the Setup Utility

• When a CD or DVD is playing

The sounds you hear are normal operating sounds created by the motor in the CD/DVD drive operating; it is not a

malfunction.

When the CD/DVD drive power is turned off, the message “The ‘MATSHITA DVD-XXX XXXX’ device can now

be safely removed from the system” will appear, but the CD/DVD drive is an internal device, so it cannot be

removed.
