Creating CDs and DVDs using
Roxio Easy CD Creator
You can use your DVD/CD-RW, or DVD-RW/CD-RW drive to create data CDs,
music CDs, or copies of CDs. You can use your DVD-RW/CD-RW drive to create
data DVDs. For more information about your drive’s capabilities, see
“Identifying drive types” on page 108.
Creating data CDs and DVDs
Use Roxio Easy CD Creator to create data CDs and DVDs. Data CDs and DVDs
are ideal for backing up important files such as tax records, letters, MP3s, digital
movies, or photos. For information on creating music CDs, see “Creating music
CDs” on page 129.
Use your movie creator software to create video DVDs. For more information
about using the movie creator software that came with your notebook, see its
online help.
To create a data CD or DVD:
1 Insert a blank, writable CD or DVD into your recordable CD or DVD drive.
Important We recommend that you do not use your notebook for
other tasks while creating CDs or DVDs.
Important If you record copyrighted material on a CD or DVD, you
need permission from the copyright owner. Otherwise, you
may be violating copyright law and be subject to payment
of damages and other remedies. If you are uncertain about
your rights, contact your legal advisor.
Important If the drive you want to use is not in the modular bay, you
need to swap modules. For more information about
swapping modules, see “Changing modules” on page 105.
