Your EZDVD+RW Stops Responding (Locks up), or Information Gets Lost or 

Corrupted While You Are Saving or Copying Files:

PC Users:

The problem is probably due to a Firewire® controller chip or other Firewire® device on your computer 

system that is not SBP-2 compliant. Try the following suggestions:

• 

Carefully follow the Firewire® 

Guidelines. They are designed 

to help you avoid some of the 

problems caused by non-compliant 

Firewire® devices.

• 

If the problem still continues, you 

may want to upgrade the Firewire® 

controller in your computer system 

to one that complies with the 

FireWire SBP-2 specification. In 

this case, contact your computer 

manufacturer for help.

• 

Do not disconnect the EZDVD+RW 

drive while it is transferring 

information—data loss will result!

You must have Windows 98 SE, Me, Windows 2000 or Windows XP to use the 

EZDVD+RW Firewire® drive.

CAUTION! Firewire® devices (including controller chips, cables, cards, and 

peripherals) that do not comply with the Firewire® specification may cause 

system lockups or possible data loss when used with your EZDVD+RW 

Firewire® drive. If you are not sure that a Firewire® device complies with the 

latest Firewire® specification, contact the manufacturer of the device.
