Be sure to close all other software programs except the Recovery Media Creator.

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

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

Do not write to the media when the 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 utilities, including those intended to enhance hard disk drive access speed. They may cause unstable operation and damage data.
