To achieve optimum performance when writing data on a CD-RW disc, follow these recommendations:

 

 

 

complete this process, follow the instructions included with your software.

 

 

 

 

Only use circular discs. Do not use discs with any other shape (star, heart, card, etc.), as this may damage

 

 

 

the CD-RW drive.

 

 

 

 

Do not strike or shake the computer while writing data to a disc.

 

 

 

 

For optimal writing speed, deactivate the screensaver before writing data to a disc.

 

 

 

 

Memory-resident disc utilities may cause unstable operation or data loss. Deactivate these utilities before

 

 

 

writing data to a disc.

 

 

 

 

For best results, use the CD-Rs that are compatible with 4x speed, as the software pre-installed on your

 

 

 

computer is preset to that speed. Your VAIO notebook does not support 1x-writing speed.

 

 

 

 

When using a software application to burn CDs, be sure to exit and close all other applications.

 

 

 

Never touch the surface of the disc. Fingerprints and dust on the surface of a disc may cause writing

 

 

 

errors.

 

 

 

 

Do not put your VAIO notebook into a power saving mode while using the pre-installed software.
