Caution: Possible Errors
DVD±R/RW drives record data on the disc by applying laser light onto the surface of the CD DVD, and
therefore writing errors may occur if you use a damaged CD DVD , for example . Be sure to eliminate the
following error-causing elements before you start writing:
* The following settings are recommended for all DVD±R/RW drives:
Avoid a situation that requires multitasking , and remove turn off the screen saver.
A buffer underrun may occur if the system multitasks while the DVD±R/RW CD-RW drive is
writing/erasing.
Block any outside attempt to access the host PC during a writing session.
An error may occur if another user accesses the printer connected to his/her the system via the
network during a writing session.
Disable the CD auto - run feature of the CD
.
Inserting an auto - run-enabled CD in to another drive connected to the same system during a
writing/erasing session may cause an error.
How to disable the auto-run feature: Windows 98/ME
GO to Start Settings Control Panel System Hardware Device Manger CD- ROM
Settings . Disable Insert AutoRun.
It is recommended that you use the image file format when you write a large number of small-
sized files.
When there are a large number of small-sized files to write , the system's transmission rate drops
and the Superlink feature works at a more frequent rate, resulting in lower writing quality.
If you are doing a CD-to-CD write , it is not necessary to check to see if you have available space
on your hard disc beforehand.
However, in the case of image files, it is recommended that you be sure you have at least twice the
amount of space needed for the data on your hard disc , as image files are copied to the hard disc
before they are copied to the CD.
Use a regulation-length (46cm) or shorter E-IDE cable.
Using an E-IDE cable longer than 46cm may cause a transmission error.
Do not use more than one type of writing software.
Before you install a writing program, be sure to first uninstall existing versions of the program or
other writing program ( s ) and reboot the system first .
(The Windows operating system may be damaged if you install the Korean version while the
English version remains on the system.)
Use only the writing software provided by Samsung.
You may experience writing errors if you use with other writing programs
.
