Preparing to Use InterVideo WinDVD

CAUTION: To prevent loss of data and damage to a DVD:
■ Before writing to a DVD, connect the notebook to a reliable external
power source. Do not write to a DVD while the notebook is running
on battery power.
■ Before writing to a DVD, close all open applications (including
screen savers and antivirus software) except InterVideo WinDVD
Creator.
■ Do not copy directly from a DVD to another DVD or from a network
drive to a DVD. Instead, copy from a DVD or network drive to your
hard drive, and then copy from your hard drive to the DVD.
■ Do not type on the notebook keyboard or move the notebook while
the notebook is writing to a DVD. The write process is sensitive to
vibration.
Choosing Recording Media
Compaq recommends using high-quality media that correspond
to the maximum speed of the optical drive. The notebook can
write or copy to DVDs that provide one-time, non-erasable
recording (DVD+R) or to DVDs that provide erasable recording
(DVD+RW).
✎
In order to write data to a DVD, you must use a blank DVD+R
disc or a DVD+RW disc on which the format has not been
finalized.
