Basic Operation

To Create or Copy CDs

If your notebook is equipped with a DVD/CDRW Combo Drive, it also includes CD software that lets you copy or create CDs. Follow the instructions that are included with the software. Read and write quality may vary by media.

To Write to DVD Media (Select Models Only)

If your notebook is equipped with a DVD+RW/R and CD-RW Combo Drive, you must install your DVD burning software from the CDs included with your notebook before you can write to DVD media.

When writing to DVD+R or DVD+RW media, observe the following guidelines:

Place the notebook on a flat, stable surface.

Ensure that the AC adapter is connected to the notebook and an AC electrical outlet.

Close and exit all other software applications, except the CD burning software (when writing a data disc) or DVD burning software (when writing a video disc).
