CAUTION: To prevent file corruption and damage to components:
■
Install the software from the drive in the notebook (not a drive in
an optional port replicator).

Do not install the software while the notebook is running on
battery power or when the external power supply is uncertain.
To install Easy CD Creator software from a CD:
1. Connect the notebook to reliable external AC power using the
AC Adapter.
2. Save and close any open files or applications.

then close the tray. If autorun is enabled, an installation menu

(where X is your optical drive designation)
✎
A drive designation is a letter of the alphabet that the notebook
uses to identify the drive. To display the drive designation of
every drive in the system, double-click the My Computer icon on
the desktop.
