APPENDIX
A
Any hints for optimizing the burn process?
•
Make sure your system meets the minimum system requirements.
•
Do not run other applications while recording CDs. Log off any networks, disable any FAX modems,
email, screen savers, or other programs that may send messages to your computer while it is
writing a disc.
•
If your computer has a power management feature, disable it.
•
In Windows, run ScanDisk and Disk Defragmenter periodically on your hard drive.
•
Do not record using data from a compressed hard drive. Buffer underruns may be caused by hard
drive compression software.
How do I install the veloCD if I have a DVD drive?
•
When installing the veloCD ReWRITER in a PC that already has a DVD drive it may be required
that your DVD drive be set to the master jumper position and the veloCD ReWRITER be set to the
slave jumper position
