Using Your VAIO Computer

Notes on writing data to a disc

Use only Sony recommended software, which is preinstalled on your computer, to write data to a disc.
Other software programs may not be fully compatible and errors may result.

To make data on a disc readable on the optical disc drive, you need to close the session before you eject it. To complete
this process, follow the instructions included with your software.

Only use circular discs. Do not use discs in any other shape (star, heart, card, etc.), as this may damage the optical disc
drive.

Do not strike or shake your computer while writing data to a disc.

Deactivate the screen saver and exit anti-virus software before writing data to a disc.

Do not use memory-resident utility software while writing data to a disc. This may cause your computer to malfunction.

Before using your software application to burn discs, make sure you exit and close all other applications.

Do not place your computer into either of the power saving modes while using the preinstalled software or any disc
burning software.

Connect and use the AC adapter to power your computer or make sure your battery pack is at least 50% charged.

Make sure you use the same disc burning software to add data to a used disc. Use of different disc burning software for
additional data burning may cause a failure. For example, if you have a disc with data that you burned with the

Roxio

Easy Media Creator

software, use the

Roxio Easy Media Creator

software to add more data to the same disc.
