Operating Basics
Before writing or rewriting
Please observe the following points when you write or rewrite the data.
■
We recommend the following manufacturers of CD-R and CD-RW
media. Media quality can affect write or rewrite success rates.
TOSHIBA has confirmed the operation of CD-R and CD-RW media of the
manufacturers above. Operation of other media cannot be guaranteed.
■
CD-RW can generally be rewritten about 1,000 times. However, the
actual number of rewrites is affected by the quality of the media and the
way it is used.
■
Be sure to connect the universal AC adapter when you write or rewrite.
■
Be sure to close all other software programs except the writing
software.
■
Do not run software such as a screen saver which can put a heavy load
on the CPU.
■
Operate the computer at full power. Do not use power-saving features.
■
Do not write while virus check software is running. Wait for it to finish,
then disable virus detection programs including any software that
checks files automatically in the background.
■
Do not use hard disc utilities, including those intended to enhance hard
disc access speeds, as they may cause unstable operation and
damage data.
■
Write from the computer's hard disc drive to the CD. Do not try to write
from shared devices such as a LAN server or any other network device.
■
Writing with software other than TOSHIBA Disc Creator has not been
confirmed. Therefore, operation with other software cannot be
guaranteed.
When writing or rewriting
Note the following when you write or rewrite a CD-R or CD-RW.
■
Always copy data from the hard disc drive to the CD. Do not use cut-
and-paste as the original data will be lost if there is a write error.
■
Do not perform any of the following actions:
■
Change users in the Windows XP operating system.
■
Operate the computer for any other function, including the use of a
mouse or the TouchPad, and the closing/opening of the LCD panel.
■
Start a communication application, such as a modem.
■
Apply impact or vibration to the PC.
