Notes

• For Windows 98 Second Edition, install the included device drivers (storage class drivers) to the

the CRW2200UX drive.

• The CRW2200UX drive cannot be used with a system that has been booted on MS-DOS or

Safe mode.

CD Writing Software

The CRW2200UX drive requires a CD writing software to write onto a CD-R/RW
disc. Make sure your CD writing software supports the CRW2200UX drive.

Note

For details about how to install and use the software, refer to the documentation that came with it.

Hard Drive Space

Writing data on a CD-R/RW disc requires 50 MB to 100 MB of free space as a
working area on the hard drive.
When writing data on a CD-R/RW disc after creating an image file, there must be
enough free space on the hard drive to store the image file in addition to the working
area (a total of up to about 900 MB).
However, this hard drive space for image files is not needed when directly writing
onto a CD-R/RW disc from a hard drive or CD-ROM using the CRW2200UX drive
(on-the-fly writing).

About disk image files

You can collect data files into a single disk image file for a CD-R/RW disc. Also, note that an
image file is useful when writing multiple discs with the same content. For further details, refer to
the documentation that came with your CD writing software.
