Operating Basics

Do not run software such as a screen saver, which can put a heavy load on the CPU.

Operate the computer at full power. Do not use power-saving features.

Do not write while virus check software is running. Wait for it to finish, then disable virus detection programs including any software that checks files automatically in the background.

Do not use hard disk utilities, including those intended to enhance hard disk access speed, as they may cause unstable operation and damage data.

Write from the computer's hard disk drive to the CD. Do not try to write from shared devices such as a LAN server or any other network device.

Writing with software other than Sonic RecordNow! or InterVideo WinDVD Creator 2 Platinum has not been confirmed. Therefore, operation with other software cannot be guaranteed.

When writing or rewriting

Please observe/consider the following when you write or rewrite to a CD-R/ RW, DVD-R/-RW/-RAM or DVD+R/+RW disc.

Do not perform any of the following actions when writing or rewriting:

Change users in the Windows XP operating system.

Operate the computer for any other function, including using a mouse or Touch Pad or closing/opening the LCD panel.

Start a communication application such as a modem.

Do not use shut down/log off and standby/hibernation while writing or rewriting.

Make sure writing or rewriting is completed before going into standby/ hibernation. Writing is completed if you can open the drive tray.

Keep mobile phones and other wireless communication devices away from the computer.

Always copy data from the hard disk drive to the CD. Do not use cut- and-paste as the original data will be lost if there is a write error.
