Using the PC When the disc formatting is complete, you can copy your files directly to the disc in My Computer by: ■ Dragging a file from a Windows Explorer window to your drive icon. Or ■ Selecting Save As from within some programs, and then saving the file to your drive. Or ■ Right-clicking a file, selecting Send To, and then selecting your drive. 3-16 After you record your files, if you want to read the DLA-formatted disc on most other CD-ROM drives, you must make the disc compatible: Insert your disc into your drive, right-click the DVD Writer drive icon or the CD Writer drive icon, and then select Make Compatible. The Make Compatible feature in DLA makes uncompressed CD-R and DVD+R discs readable by most read-only CD or DVD drives, even if DLA is not installed in the PC. When you make a disc compatible, DLA closes the session on your disc. This means: ■ With a DVD+R, you are not able to add data to the disc. ■ With a CD-R, you are able to add more data in another recording session, but you need to select Make Compatible again after you add the files.

Getting Started
Using the PC
When the disc formatting is complete, you
can copy your files directly to the disc in
My Computer by:
■
Dragging a file from a Windows Explorer
window to your drive icon.
Or
■
Selecting
Save As
from within some
programs, and then saving the file to your
drive.
Or
■
Right-clicking a file, selecting
Send To
, and
then selecting your drive.
After you record your files, if you want to read the
DLA-formatted disc on most other CD-ROM drives,
you must make the disc compatible: Insert your disc
into your drive, right-click the DVD Writer drive
icon or the CD Writer drive icon, and then select
Make Compatible
.
The Make Compatible feature in DLA makes
uncompressed CD-R and DVD+R discs readable
by most read-only CD or DVD drives, even if DLA
is not installed in the PC. When you make a disc
compatible, DLA closes the session on your disc.
This means:
■
With a DVD+R, you are not able to add data
to the disc.
■
With a CD-R, you are able to add more data
in another recording session, but you need to
select
Make Compatible
again after you
add the files.
