Preparing to Use Easy CD & DVD Creator
Ä
CAUTION: To prevent loss of work and damage to a CD or DVD:
■ Before writing to a CD, connect the notebook to a reliable external
power source. Do not write to a CD while the notebook is running
on battery power.
■ Before writing to a CD, close all open applications (including
screen savers and antivirus software) except Easy CD and DVD
Creator.
■ Do not copy directly from a CD to another CD or from a network
drive to a CD. Instead, copy from a CD or network drive to your
hard drive, then copy from your hard drive to the CD.
■ Do not type on the notebook keyboard or move the notebook while
the notebook is writing to a CD. The write process is sensitive to
vibration.
Choosing Recording Media
HP recommends using high-quality media that correspond to the
maximum speed of the optical drive. The notebook can write or
copy to CDs that provide one-time, non-erasable recording
(CD-R) or to CDs that provide erasable recording (CD-RW).
✎
In order to write data to a CD, you must use a blank CD-R disc or
a CD-RW disc on which the format has not been finalized. For
more information about choosing media for use with Easy CD &
DVD Creator, refer to the Roxio Easy CD & DVD Creator online
User’s Guide.
