Troubleshooting
Optical Discs
Why does my computer freeze when I try to read a disc?
The disc that your computer is trying to read may be dirty or damaged. Follow these steps:
1
Restart the computer by clicking StartTurn Off Computer, and Restart.
2
Eject the disc from the optical disc drive.
3
Examine the disc for dirt or damage. If the disc is dirty, see On Handling Discs 
 for instructions on how to 
clean it.
 
What should I do if the drive tray does not open?
Make sure your computer is on.
If power supply to the optical disc drive is disabled by VAIO Power Management, the substitute drive eject button on the 
optical disc drive will not work. Use the disc drive eject button located above the keyboard. Note that it will take a while to 
eject the drive tray if the optical disc drive is not powered.
If the disc drive eject button does not work, click Start and then My Computer. Right-click the optical disc drive icon, and 
select Eject from the shortcut menu.
If none of the above options work, insert a thin, straight object (such as a paper clip) in the manual eject hole near the 
substitute drive eject button.
Try restarting your computer.
