Using the DVD-ROM or multi-function drive
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 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 that 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.
Drive components and control buttons
The DVD-ROM or multi-function drive resides on the left 
side of the computer. The CD/DVD control buttons are 
located to the left of the keyboard and can be accessed when 
the display panel is open.
