Although your computer does not have an integrated optical drive, you can easily access 
software, install programs, and access information by sharing an optical drive connected to 
another computer in your network. Drive sharing is a feature of the Windows operating 
system that allows a drive on one computer to be accessible to other computers on the same 
network.

✎

You must have a network set up in order to share an optical drive. Refer to Help and 
Support for information on setting up a network.

✎

Some discs, such as DVD movies and game discs, may be copy-protected and therefore 
unusable through DVD or CD sharing.

1. From the computer with the optical drive you want to share, click Start, and then click
