Upgrade Guide
Install a new DVD drive in your machine, step by step.
1. Check Your PC
Make sure your PC is completely trouble-free before you start; even minor incompatibilities that never gave you grief before can sabotage your DVD installation. Select Start, Settings, Control Panel, double-click the System icon, and click the Device Manager tab. If you see exclamation points next to any of the device entries, select Start, Help, Find, search for Help's hardware troubleshooter, and follow the directions given there.
Because installing a DVD drive will substantially change your software and hardware settings, do a complete back-up of your PC.
Then select Start, Settings, Control Panel, double-click the Display icon, click the Settings tab, and set your display to 800 by 600 dpi and high color (16-bit).
