Recording Audio and Data Files You can record and customize audio files and back up large data files to CD-R, CD-RW, DVD+R, and DVD+RW discs by using the RecordNow program. For best recording results, don't perform any other tasks while recording. Important: When making a copy of a CD or DVD, RecordNow can record only to the same disc type it records from. For example, you can record a DVD only to a DVD+R or DVD+RW disc and you can record a CD only to a CD-R or a CD-RW disc. Recording music files You can use RecordNow to create music CDs from various audio files that are downloaded from the Internet, recorded from your hard drive files, or recorded from other CDs. CD-R discs play in most home and car stereos. CD-RW discs play only in some stereos. Warning: When labeling your DVDs, do not use sticky labels. They can cause the DVD to play erratically. Instead, write on the DVD with a felt tip pen to label it. To use RecordNow to record music files: 1 Click Start, choose All Programs, RecordNow, and then click RecordNow. The RecordNow main window opens. 2 Click Make a Music Disc. 3 Select one of these options: Make a Music Disc from Audio Files (Create a music disc from MP3/WMA or WAV files on your hard drive.)
