Operating Basics ■ In writing to a DVD-R/-RW, DVD+R/+RW or DVD+R DL disc, some disc space is required for file management, so you may not be able to write the full capacity of the disc. ■ Since the disc is based on the DVD standard, it will be filled with dummy data if the written data is less than about 1 GB. Even if you write only a small amount of data, it might take time to fill in the dummy data. ■ When multiple drives that can write data to discs are connected, be careful not to write to the wrong drive. ■ Be sure to connect the universal AC adaptor before you write or rewrite. ■ Write from the computer's HDD to the CD/DVD. Do not try to write from shared devices such as a LAN server or any other network device. ■ Writing with software other than RecordNow! is not recommended. When writing or rewriting Please observe/consider the following when you write or rewrite to a CD-R/ RW, DVD-R/-RW, DVD+R/+RW or DVD+R DL disc. ■ Do not perform any of the following actions: ■ Change users in the Windows XP operating system. ■ Operate the computer for any other function, including use of a mouse or Touch Pad, closing/opening the LCD panel. ■ Start a communication application such as a modem. ■ Apply impact or vibration to the PC. ■ Install, remove or connect external devices, including the following: PC Card, USB devices, external display, i.LINK devices, optical digital devices. ■ Use the Audio/Video control button to reproduce music or voice. ■ Open the CD-RW/DVD-ROM, DVD+-R/+-RW drive. ■ Do not use shut down/log off and standby/hibernation while writing or rewriting. ■ Make sure writing or rewriting is completed before going into standby/ hibernation. Writing is completed if you can open the CD-RW/DVDROM, DVD+-R/+-RW drive tray. ■ Set the computer on a level surface and avoid places subject to vibration such as airplanes, trains, or cars. Do not use an unstable surface such as a stand. ■ Keep mobile phones and other wireless communication devices away from the computer. User's Manual 4-12
