Is the disc bent, scratched, or dirty?

An error may occur if, after the tray has been

closed or operation has been resumed from the

sleep(Windows Vista), standby(Windows XP)/hiber-

nate modes, the drive is accessed before the Multi-
media Pocket device status indicator

goes off.

Also, an error may occur if the drive is accessed by

the application software automatically. In a case like

this, remove the disc, re-insert it, and try again.

Right-click [(x:)]*

in [start] - [My Computer], click

[Properties] - [Recording], then remove the check

mark for [Enable CD recording on this drive].

(Remove the check mark for [Enable CD recording

on this drive] every time a new user is added.)

suit your preference.

Cannot eject disc

Turn on the computer.

To remove a disc when the

computer is powered off, insert

a pointed object (e.g., the bent-

out tip of a paper clip)

into the emergency hole (A). Pushing it completely

to the end will free the tray so that it can be pulled

out. (The position of the emergency hole differs

depending on the drive.)

If a disc with fi ngerprints or other dirt is used, you

may not be able to remove it. Use a clean disc.
