How to Make a Copy of a CD

To make a backup copy of a CD, follow these steps:

1.Select the source drive from which you want to copy the CD. This can be your CD-R, CD-RW, or CD-ROM drive. See “Source CD-ROM Drives for CD-to-CD Copying” in the CD Copier Online Help if you are going to copy directly from a CD-ROM drive.

2.Select the destination drive that contains the blank CD. This is your CD-RW drive.

3.Make changes, if any, in the Advanced tab settings. See “CD Copier Advanced Tab Settings” on page 8-4.

4.Select one of the following options:

■Test—Select this option to perform a test in which the files to be recorded are passed to the CD recorder. No information is recorded to the CD. Use this option if you have made any changes to your CD recorder setup.

■Test & Copy—Select this option to perform a test in which the files to be recorded are passed to the CD recorder. Recording begins after a successful test.

■Copy—Select this option when you do not want to perform the test. Use this option if you have successfully recorded a number of similar CDs and you have not made any changes to your CD recorder setup.

5.Select the number of copies you want to make.

6.Click Copy to begin recording a copy of your CD.

7.Follow the on-screen instructions and insert a blank CD when prompted.

CD Copier begins copying the files and folders from your source to a blank CD. A final message box notifies you when the copying is complete.
