If a region code warning appears when you try to use your optical drive, it 
may be that the DVD you are trying to play is incompatible with the optical 
drive. Verify the region code listed on the DVD package.
Condensation may cause the notebook to malfunction. If this occurs, do not

2
Disconnect the devices that are not in use. 
3
Ensure that all other devises are properly connected.

using.
Check that any necessary drivers were installed properly. See “To use the 
Driver Recovery CD(s)” on page 55
