• Close other applications such as screensaver, task scheduler, and so on.
• Turn hard drive power management off.
• Deactivate Active Desktop (for Windows users).
• Disable network access.

the documentation for that software).
• Connect the CRW2100IX drive solely to the host computer.

If there is a slower device connected between the host computer and CRW2100IX
drive, the data transfer between CRW2100IX drive and the host computer will go
slow, which may cause failure in writing a CD.

Errors can occur if you vibrate the CRW2100IX drive while it is writing to disc.

When doing packet writing on a CD-RW disc, the actual data capacity becomes
approximately 100MB less than stated on the cover of the disc. It is because packet
writing requires an additional area on the disc.
Unstable operations.
●
Do you have several kinds of CD writing software installed to the same
system?
Such a situation may cause conflict, resulting in unstable operations.
●
Has dust or dirt collected on the disc surface?
If so, clean the disc surface using an air spray or by wiping using a lint-free
cloth. Remember to wipe the surface from the center of the disc to the edge.
Be careful not to scratch it.
Other symptoms
Your CD writing software does not recognize the CRW2100IX drive.

That software you are using may not support the drive. Consult the software
manufacturer for compatibility with the CRW2100IX drive.
