Your CD-RW drive requires a steady stream of data to properly record. Direct Internet downloads, floppy drives, and Zip drives may not be able to provide a steady data stream to your CD-RW drive. • Music MP3 files can be played only on MP3 players or on computers that have MP3 software installed. • Ensure that you set the sampling rate to at least 128 Kbps when you burn MP3 files to a CD. Otherwise, recording errors may occur. • Do not burn a blank CD-R or CD-RW disc to its maximum capacity; for example, do not copy a 650-MB file to a 650-MB blank CD. The CD-RW drive needs 1 or 2 MB of the blank CD to finalize the recording. • Use a blank CD-RW disc to practice CD recording until you are familiar with CD recording techniques. If you make a mistake, you can erase the CD-RW disc and try again. You can also use blank CD-RW discs to test music file projects before you record the project permanently to a blank CD-R disc. • See the Roxio support website at support.roxio.com for additional helpful tips. How to Copy a CD NOTE: If you have a DVD/CD-RW combo drive and you experience recording problems, first check for available software patches at the Dell Support website at support.dell.com and if necessary, the Roxio support website at support.roxio.com. The procedure assumes that your computer is equipped with a single CD-RW drive (without an additional CD drive). If your computer is equipped with both types of drives, see the Roxio documentation for instructions on how to copy CDs from a CD drive to a CD-RW drive. 1 Click the Start button, point to All Programs→ Roxio Easy CD Creator, and then click Project Selector. The Select a Project window appears. 2 Click Disc Copier. (Disc Copier is titled "CD Copier" in some versions of Easy CD Creator Basic.) The Disc Copier window appears and displays your CD-RW drive in the Copy from and the Record to lists. 3 Insert the source CD that you want to copy into the CD-RW drive. The Disc Copier project program briefly checks the source CD in the CD-RW drive to ensure that it is a readable CD. 72 U s i n g C D s , D V D s , a n d O t h e r M u l t i m e d i a
