Recording or copying CDs is difficult or impossible.

Cause

Solution

Disc space has been exceeded.

The recording software may not let you add a track if it exceeds the available space on your disc. You can make space available by removing one or more tracks from the list before recording the files to disc.

Other applications are causing a resource conflict.

Close all software programs and windows before recording.

 

Restart your PC if necessary.

 

 

 

Wrong or poor quality media type.

1.

Try using a slower speed when recording.

 

2.

Verify that you are using the correct media for the drive.

 

3.

Try a different brand of media. Quality varies widely

 

 

between manufacturers.

 

 

Network is slow.

If you are on a network, copy the files from a network drive to

 

your hard disk drive first, and then record them to disc.
