Before You Start
Please understand that CD recording is a non-interruptible process. Therefore, a stable
recording environment is a must. If you have a HDD set up only for CD recording
purpose, the recording process shall be smooth.
However, if an extra HDD is not available, you might prefer carrying out the following
steps to optimize your Windows 98 / 98SE CD recording arrangement:
y
Close all resident programs that include Anti-Virus, Screen Saver, System
Agent, Power Management, etc. Turn off Auto Insert Notification. Further,
maximizing and minimizing windows are not recommended either. If not, any
operation of these applications will intrude the CD recording process and
damage your disk.
y
Defrag your HDD before any CD recording. This is particularly important
y
When you write files to CD from HDD. Defragment of HDD reallocates all the
files so that these relevant files are placed in the nearby clusters. This saves
time and risks when Easy CD Creator is trying to search for the files you want to
record on CD.
