Operating Basics
■
CD-RW can generally be rewritten about 1,000 times. However, the
actual number of rewrites is affected by the quality of the media and the
way it is used.
■
Be sure to connect the AC adaptor when you write or rewrite.
■
Be sure to close all other software programs except the writing
software.
■
Do not run software such as a screen saver which can put a heavy load
on the CPU.
■
Operate the computer at full power. Do not use power-saving features.
■
Do not write while virus check software is running. Wait for it to finish,
then disable virus detection programs including any software that
checks files automatically in the background.
■
Do not use hard disk utilities, including those intended to enhance HDD
access speed. They may cause unstable operation and damage data.
■
Write from the computer's HDD to the CD. Do not try to write from
shared devices such as a LAN server or any other network device.
■
Writing with software other than RecordNow! has not been confirmed.
Therefore, operation with other software cannot be guaranteed.
When writing or rewriting
Note the following when you write or rewrite a CD-R or CD-RW.
■
Always copy data from the HDD to the CD. Do not use cut-and-paste.
The original data will be lost if there is a write error.

■
If the media is poor in quality, dirty or damaged, writing or rewriting
errors may occur.

vibration such as airplanes trains, or cars. Do not use an unstable
surface such as a stand.
