Notes:

1.Your computer has been configured to provide the highest quality audio and video playback obtainable with the available system resources. You can alter the default settings by changing the video resolution setting within the Control Panel. Some systems do not have enough resources to provide full-quality audio and video playback at all resolution settings. If you experience poor playback performance, adjust the resolution to a lower setting.

2.Audio or video streams are decoded by software. The audio and video subsystems need to be fully functional and enabled.

Using the CD-R and CD-RW function

The CD-RW/DVD drive can write to both CD-R and CD-RW discs. CD-R discs cannot be erased, but can be used with standard CD-ROM drives and CD players.

You can use CD-R discs to record audio tracks, store data, archive files, and copy files from another CD.

CD-RW discs can be erased and rewritten, but can be used only with newer MR- and CD-RW-compatible CD-ROM and DVD-ROM drives. You can use CD-RW discs to back up, store, and update files or to copy files from another CD.

Notes:

1.CD-R discs are playable on audio CD players. CD-RW discs are not playable on most audio CD players.

2.The software included with this drive does not enable the drive CD-recording capabilities with DOS, Windows 3.x, or IBM OS/2® operating systems.
