Installing the drive  
Follow these steps to install the DVD-RAM/DVD-R drive:  
Step 1. Opening the computer  
1. Turn off the computer and all attached devices.  
2. Unplug all power cords from the computer and all attached devices.  
3. Remove the cover from the computer. Refer to your computer  
documentation for instructions on removing the computer cover.  
Step 2. Unpacking the drive  
1. Before opening the antistatic bag that the drive is packed in, touch the bag  
to an unpainted metal surface for at least 2 seconds. This drains the static  
electricity from the package and your body.  
2. Remove the drive from the bag.  
Installation and users guide 1-5  
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
 
If you must put the drive down, place the antistatic bag on a flat, padded  
surface, and place the drive on the antistatic bag.  
Step 3. Setting the configuration jumpers  
You can configure your drive as master ꢀ1ꢁ, slave ꢀ2ꢁ, or cable-select ꢀ3ꢁ, by  
placing the jumper over the configuration pins as shown.  
Use the following guidelines to determine the correct configuration for your  
DVD-RAM/DVD-R drive:  
v Configure the DVD-RAM/DVD-R drive as a master if it will be the only  
device that is connected to the IDE cable. This is the preset configuration.  
v Configure the DVD-RAM/DVD-R drive as a slave if it will be the second  
device on an IDE cable. Be sure to configure the other device as a master. In  
some cases, a hard disk drive might require a master with slave present″  
jumper setting when another device on the same cable is configured as a  
slave. For more information on setting configuration jumpers on other  
devices, refer to the documentation that comes with your computer.  
v Some non-IBM computers use special ATA cables with two wires reversed in  
the device connectors so that the drives can be configured by the cable  
instead of by jumper position. Use the cable-select position only for  
computers that are equipped with these special cables. See the  
documentation that comes with your computer to determine if your ATA  
adapter requires that you place the jumpers in the cable-select position.  
If you place the jumper in the cable-select position, the IDE cable  
automatically assigns the master and slave settings based on the position of  
the drive on the cable. You must use the cable-select setting for this cabling  
system, regardless of whether the DVD-RAM/DVD-R drive is the only  
device or the second device connected to the cable. The drive closest to the  
IDE controller is automatically the master drive. Any other devices on the  
IDE cable must also be set to cable-select.

Step 4. Mounting the drive in the bay  
Attention: Be sure to use the M3 x 5-mm mounting screws in the option  
package when you are driving screws directly into the drive. Using screws that  
are too long might damage the drive.  
You can mount the DVD-RAM/DVD-R drive horizontally or vertically in the  
computer. If you mount the drive vertically, you must secure any discs that  
you place into the drive before the drive tray is closed, or the  
DVD-RAM/DVD-R drive will not be able to read the disc properly.  
1. Slide the drive into the bay. Your computer might have specific required  
procedures for installing storage devices. For more information on storage  
devices, refer to the documentation that comes with your computer.  
2. Align the drive-bay screw holes with the threaded holes in the drive  
housing or mounting bracket.  
3. Thread the screws in loosely to check their position. Two screws are usually  
used on each side. Verify that the alignment is correct; then tighten the  
screws to secure the drive. Do not overtighten.  
Step 5. Attaching the cables to the drive  
The following diagram shows where to connect the cables to the drive.  
The following is an illustration of the internal audio cable that comes with  
your option package.  
Installation and users guide 1-7  
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
 
Note: Some computers have a smaller connector that is incompatible with the  
included internal audio cable. If your computer has this kind of  
connector, you must purchase a new audio cable.  
1. Connect the single-connector end ꢀ4ꢁof the included interal audio cable to  
the appropriate connector on the computer system board.  
2. Connect one of the dual-connector ends ꢀ1ꢁof the included internal audio  
cable to the audio-out connector on the DVD-RAM/DVD-R drive. If you  
have another optical drive in your computer, you can connect the other  
dual-connector end to that drive.  
3. Attach a 40-pin IDE-cable connector ꢀ2ꢁto the IDE connector on the drive.  
Align the cable so that the color-coded edge is closest to the power cable  
connector ꢀ3ꢁ. Use the IDE cable that is provided with this option if there  
is no cable attached to the IDE port or if there is only one device connector  
on the computer IDE cable. The IDE cable can have up to three connectors.  
For the best signal quality when you are connecting only one device to the  
IDE cable, connect one end of the cable to the IDE port, and connect the  
other end of the cable to the device. Do not use the middle connector.  
If you are connecting two devices to the IDE cable, connect one end of the  
cable to the IDE port, and connect the master and slave devices to the  
remaining connectors on the other end. Many computers have two cables  
for attaching up to four ATA devices. For best performance, attach fast  
devices (such as hard disk drives) to the cable that is connected to the  
primary IDE port, and connect the DVD-RAM/DVD-R drive or other  
slower devices (such as CD-ROM drives, tape drives, and diskette drives)  
to the cable that is connected to the secondary IDE port.  
4. Attach a four-pin power cable ꢀ3ꢁto the power connector on the  
DVD-RAM/DVD-R drive.  
Be sure that the cables will not be pinched or crowded by the computer  
cover and that all other cable and power connections are secure.  
Step 6. Completing the hardware installation  
1. Be sure that the DVD-RAM/DVD-R drive is securely mounted and that the  
connectors are firmly attached.  
2. Be sure that the cables do not interfere with the computer cover and that  
they do not block the power-supply fan blades or airflow paths.  
3. Reinstall the computer cover.  
4. Reconnect all external devices.  
5. Plug all power cords into the electrical outlets.  
Step 7. Installing the software  
All of the software for the drive is contained on the Users Guide and Software  
CD. To install the software, follow this procedure:

Using the DVD Player software  
This section describes how to use and customize the DVD Player software. You  
can find current information on DVD Player software in the README file on  
the Users Guide and Software CD.  
Before using the software  
DVMatics requires a compatible video dvice driver and IDE bus mastering in  
settingson page C-1 for information on enabling DMA bus mastering and for  
locating video device drivers.  
Using the DVD Player  
When you insert a DVD video disc into the DVD-RAM/DVD-R drive, the  
DVD Player software will automatically load and begin to play the video disc.  
If the DVD disc contains both video and the program content will  
automatically play. To view the video content of a video/program DVD disc,  
open the DVD player from the Start menu, and click Play on the graphical  
user interface (GUI).  
Changing the DVD region code  
Regionalization and Copy Protection (the DVD region code) uses the content  
scrambling system (CSS) standard to prevent unauthorized duplication of the  
intellectual property that is distributed on DVDs. It was originally requested  
by the Motion Picture Association of America (MPAA) to address video piracy,  
but is applicable to any content. CSS works by inhibiting the transmission of  
unencrypted data without proper authorization. Playback systems must license  
CSS to decode the encrypted data.  
The CSS specification divides the world into seven regions. Content that is  
encrypted for one region cannot be read by playback systems for other regions.  
While CSS is used to prevent digital copying of the DVD content, the  
Macrovision standard prevents analog copying of the DVD content. The  
Macrovision standard is a scrambling system that has been widely used by the  
movie industry to prevent unauthorized duplication of video content using  
commercial VCRs. DVD playback systems must support both CSS and  
Macrovision copy protection standards.  
The first time that you insert a DVD video disc into the DVD-RAM/DVD-R  
drive, you will be prompted to set the region. If you want to play DVDs that  
1-12 IBM DVD-RAM/DVD-R Drive: Users Guide

are encrypted for a different region of the world, you can use the DVD Player  
software to change the region code in your DVD drive.  
Note: You can change the DVD region code only five times. After you make  
five region code changes, the drive can play only DVDs that are  
encrypted for the fifth region code that you set.  
To change the region code, do the following:  
1. Turn on your computer, and start your operating system.  
2. Click Start.  
3. Select Programs.  
4. Click DVD Player.  
5. Click the Properties icon to open the Properties window.  
6. Click the General Properties tab.  
7. Select the correct region code for your country.  
8. Click OK so that the change takes effect.

Appendix B. Solving problems  
Computer problems can be caused by hardware, software, or user error. Using  
the information in this section, you might be able to solve problems yourself or  
gather helpful information that you can pass on to a service technician. You  
might also need to refer to your computer, operating system, or audio-adapter  
documentation.  
Review the following list for any problem description that might fit your  
situation.  
v Your computer or DVD-RAM/DVD-R drive does not operate correctly, or  
the Busy indicator light does not come on.  
Take the following actions:  
1. Check that the disc is loaded with the label side up.  
2. Check that all devices are properly connected to the computer and to the  
electrical outlet.  
3. Turn off the computer, unplug the cables for your computer and all  
attached devices, and remove the computer cover.  
4. Check that all power and IDE cables are securely attached. Disconnect  
the IDE cable and check for bent or misaligned pins. If you do not find  
any problems, reconnect the interface cable. Replace the computer cover,  
and reattach all cables and power cords. Turn on the computer, restart  
the operating system, and attempt to open the loading tray by pressing  
the Open/Close button. If the tray fails to open and the Busy indicator  
does not light, turn off the computer and try using another 4-pin dc  
power cable.  
5. Check that the color-coded edge on the IDE cable aligns with pin 1 on  
the IDE port and is closest to the power cable on the DVD-RAM/DVD-R  
6. Check the DVD-RAM/DVD-R drive and any other device on the IDE  
cable for the proper settings. See Step 3. Setting the configuration  
7. If the middle connector on the IDE cable is attached to the IDE port on  
the system board, remove the connector and reattach the cable. If there is  
only one device on the IDE port, attach the connector at one end of the  
cable to the IDE port and the connector at the other end to the device,  
leaving the middle connector (if there is one) open.  
If there are two devices on the IDE port, attach the connector at one end  
of the cable to the IDE port. If there is a hard disk drive, attach it to the  
connector at the other end of the cable, and attach the  
DVD-RAM/DVD-R drive to the middle connector.

Check for incompatibilities among the DVD-RAM/DVD-R drive device  
driver and other device drivers or other hardware in your computer. Create  
a system diskette with minimum CONFIG.SYS and AUTOEXEC.BAT system  
files.  
1. Before creating special CONFIG.SYS and AUTOEXEC.BAT files, make a  
backup copy of these files in a convenient directory. From a DOS  
prompt, do the following:  
a. Type copy CONFIG.SYS CONFIG.IBM and press Enter.  
b. Type copy AUTOEXEC.BAT AUTOEXEC.IBM and press Enter.  
2. Insert a blank, formatted diskette into the diskette drive.  
3. Copy the CONFIG.SYS and AUTOEXEC.BAT files onto the diskette.  
4. Turn off the computer, and ensure that the system diskette (the diskette  
that you created) is in the diskette drive.  
5. Restart the computer (the computer starts up from the system diskette).  
6. Observe the startup messages, and ensure that the device driver  
IBMIDECD.SYS loads. When MSCDEX loads, observe the drive letter  
that the computer assigns to the DVD-RAM/DVD-R drive.  
7. Insert a data CD into the loading tray; then wait until the Busy  
indicator is not lit.  
8. Attempt to read the disc by typing dir e:, where e is the  
DVD-RAM/DVD-R drive letter assigned after the MSCDEX message.  
If the computer is able to read the disc, a conflict probably exists  
among the device drivers that are loaded by the CONFIG.SYS or  
AUTOXEC.BAT file. You need to resolve this device conflict. Refer to  
the documentation that comes with your computer for more  
information on resolving device conflicts.  
If you are unable to access the disc, you might have a hardware  
problem. If you are unable to read the disc or a drive letter is not  
assigned by MSCDEX, go to the next step.  
9. Turn off the computer, unplug the cables for your computer and all  
attached devices from the electrical outlets, and remove the computer  
cover.  
10. Disconnect the IDE and power cables for all IDE devices except the  
DVD-RAM/DVD-R drive.  
11. Configure the DVD-RAM/DVD-R drive as a master, and connect it to  
the last IDE connector on the primary IDE port.  
12. Reinstall the computer cover. Reconnect the keyboard; plug the power  
cords into electrical outlets.  
13. Insert the system diskette into the diskette drive, and insert a data disc  
into the DVD-RAM/DVD-R drive.  
14. Restart the computer.

15. Attempt to read the disc by typing dir C: (the DVD-RAM/DVD-R  
drive is drive C because it is the only device that is connected to the  
IDE port).  
If the computer is able to read the disc, a conflict probably exists  
with one of the devices that are installed on your computer. You  
need to resolve this device-driver conflict. Check the configuration  
jumper settings for the other devices or refer to your device  
documentation.  
If you are unable to access the disc, you might have a hardware  
problem. If the DVD-RAM/DVD-R drive still does not read the data  
disc, the DVD-RAM/DVD-R drive might be defective. See  
v The disc cannot be read.  
Take the following actions:  
1. The disc might be dirty; clean it as described in Caring for a CD or  
2. The disc might be defective; try another disc.  
3. The disc is not ISO-9660, High Sierra Group (HSG), or Universal Disc  
Format (UDS) compatible. Check with your place of purchase.  
v There is no sound from the disc.  
1. Verify that you are not using a data CD.  
2. Adjust the audio-adapter volume control. See the documentation that  
comes with your audio adapter and audio-CD player program.  
3. Turn off the computer, unplug the cables from the electrical outlets for  
your computer and all attached devices, and remove the computer cover.  
Ensure that the audio-signal cable connects the DVD-RAM/DVD-R drive  
with the sound adapter.  
v You receive a common error message.  
Take the following actions for these common error messages:

Appendix C. Customizing the device-driver  
configuration settings  
Microsoft Windows 95, Windows 98, and Windows Me have two device-driver  
configuration parameters: Auto Insert Notify and DMA.  
The Auto Insert Notify parameter enables the computer to start playing or  
accessing the disc automatically after being inserted in the drive. The DMA  
parameter improves the computer performance by having the computer DMA  
controller handle data transfers from the CD to memory, freeing the  
microprocessor to perform other tasks. For example, activating DMA might  
make movies and games run more smoothly because the microprocessor is  
allocating more processing time to video.  
Changing the Auto Insert Notify and DMA parameters for  
Windows 95, Windows 98, and Windows Me  
To change the Auto Insert Notify and DMA parameters in Windows 95,  
Windows 98, and Windows Me, do the following:

the instructions that IBM provides.  
When warranty service involves the exchange of a Machine or part, the item  
IBM or your reseller replaces becomes its property and the replacement  
becomes yours. You represent that all removed items are genuine and  
unaltered. The replacement may not be new, but will be in good working order  
and at least functionally equivalent to the item replaced. The replacement  
assumes the warranty service status of the replaced item. Many features,  
conversions, or upgrades involve the removal of parts and their return to IBM.  
A part that replaces a removed part will assume the warranty service status of  
the removed part.  
Before IBM or your reseller exchanges a Machine or part, you agree to remove  
all features, parts, options, alterations, and attachments not under warranty  
service.  
You also agree to  
1. ensure that the Machine is free of any legal obligations or restrictions that
