The Windows

 operating system will now try to establish a 

wireless connection.

If you are using an external Wi-Fi

®

 adapter (a PC Card, USB 

adapter, or other variety), check if the adapter comes with its own 
management utility. If it does, the utility may be disabling the 
Windows

®

 operating system wireless management facility, in which 

case you must use the adapter's management utility. If the 
documentation that accompanies the adapter does not provide 
enough information to determine if this is the case, contact that 
vendor's support group for further advice.

If you experience a problem playing DVDs, you may be able to fix 
the problem yourself. 

For general problems playing a DVD title, try the following steps:

Verify that the disc is in a format that the drive supports.

Ensure that the disc is properly inserted in the drive tray.

Clean the disc and try again.

A dirty drive can also cause audio problems. If you have tried 
several discs and all fail, consider sending your drive to an 
authorized service provider to get it cleaned.

Verify that your computer recognizes your optical drive by 
clicking Start, and then Computer. The optical drive should 
appear in the list.

 for instructions 

on using Device Manager to view the optical drive properties. 

Check the Toshiba Web site for new information on optical 
drives and their operation.
