Playing CDs using Auto-Run
If you insert a CD into the CD-RW/DVD-ROM or multi-
function drive and the Auto-Run feature does not
automatically start your disc, try launching the CD manually.
To do this, follow these steps:
1 Open the Start menu and select My Computer.
2 Click the CD-RW/DVD-ROM or multi-function drive
icon.
The disc drive will run the CD.
If your disc does not run using this method, try using an
application that is associated with the media on the disc. For
example, if it is a music CD, open Windows
®
Media Player
and use it to select and then play the CD. For other types of
media, use the associated software to open the files on the
disc.

❖ Play pre-recorded CDs
❖ Read and write data (depending on your system
configuration) and music files to CD-Recordable (CD-R)
and CD-Rewritable (CD-RW) discs; and DVD
