To write to a CD-RW or CD-R
(For models with a CD-RW drive)
If you use DirectCD™ to write data, you must first format the disc before writing
on a new CD-RW or CD-R. If you do not format the disc, your computer will not
recognize it.
To make a CD-R to which data has been written readable on a CD-ROM drive,
you need to complete the disc when you eject it. To complete this process, follow
the instructions included with your software.
Some discs recorded at 20 or 24 bits may produce noise while playing. If you
have audio devices connected, this may cause damage to your hearing and the
speakers. Reduce the volume before playing such discs.
You cannot switch between LCD and TV if you press Fn+F8 when a DVD or CD is
inserted in the DVD-ROM or CD-RW drive.
✍
If you use Easy CD Creator™ to write data to a CD-RW or CD-R, you do not have to
format the disc.
✍
For optimal writing speed, deactivate the screen saver and exit anti-virus software
before writing data to a disc.
For best results, use CD-Rs that are compatible with 4x speed, as DirectCD™ and Easy
CD Creator™ are preset to that speed. Your notebook does not support 1x writing
speed. If you use CD-RW or CD-R writing software other than DirectCD™, use
PowerPanel to select the DVD Profile. Memory-resident disc utilities may cause
unstable operation or data loss. Deactivate these utilities before writing data to a disc.
When using Easy Creator™ Standard, be sure to close and exit all other applications.
If your notebook computer has preinstalled Microsoft® Office applications, such as
Excel, Word, and Outlook, turn off the FindFast application.
Do not put your notebook into power saving mode while using DirectCD™ to write
data, or while using Easy CD Creator™.
