CD writing software installation
Before you start…
Please understand that CD recording is a non-interruptible process. Therefore, a stable
recording environment is a must. It is the best condition, if you have a HDD only for CD
recording purpose. That is, in this HDD, only Windows 98SE or higher and the necessary
software are installed, nothing else. Then the recording process will be smooth. However
if an extra HDD is not available, you might need to carry out the following steps to
optimize your Windows CD recording process.
1. Close all resident programs including 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.
2.
Defragment your HDD before any CD recording. This is particularly important when
you write files to CD from HDD. Defragmentation 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.
3. It is not advisable that you have too many devices internally connected to the
system. Heavy load carried by the system power supply may result in unstable
power delivery to each of the internal devices thus causes system unsteadiness.
