Optical storage has become the preferred medium for 
software, music, and video. Digital versatile discs (DVDs) 
provide a significant increase in data storage and support 
features that are not available on any other video platform. 
These features include wide-screen movies, multiple 
language tracks, digital surround sound, multiple camera 
angles, and interactive menus.

For these reasons, your computer may come with a DVD-
ROM drive or multi-function drive.

TECHNICAL NOTE: Your DVD-ROM or multi-function drive is 
set to play region 1 (North America) DVD-ROMs. If you play a 
DVD disc from another region, the drive will automatically 
change to play in the format of the other region. The drive will 
allow you to change regions four times. On the fourth change, 
the region will be “locked in.” That is, the drive will only play 
DVDs from the last region. Note that changing from region 1 to 
region 2 and back to region 1 is counted as two changes.

For optimum DVD performance, it is recommended that you 
play DVDs while running the computer on AC power.

You use CD-ROMs to load and run software, and to access 
reference material such as catalogs, as well as listen to music. 
A special feature allows you to play audio CDs even when the 
computer is turned off. For more information, see
