Protecting Playback
To prevent the loss of playback or playback quality:
■ Save your work and close all open applications before
playing a CD or a DVD.

device before or after playing a disc, not while playing a disc.
To prevent the loss of playback while the notebook is in
Windows, do not initiate standby or hibernation while playing
a
disc. If standby or hibernation is initiated while a disc is in
use,
you may see the warning message “Putting the computer
into
Hibernation or Standby might stop the playback. Do you
want to continue?” If this message is displayed, select
No.
After
you select No:
■ Playback may resume.

■ Playback may stop and the screen may clear. To return to
your work, press the power button and then restart the disc.
Protecting a CD or DVD Write Process
Ä
CAUTION: To prevent loss of work and damage to a disc:
■ Before writing to a disc, connect the notebook to a reliable external
power source. Do not write to a disc while the notebook is running
on battery power.
■ Before writing to a disc, close all open applications (including
screen savers and antivirus software) except the disc software you
are using.
■ Do not copy directly from a source disc to a destination disc or from
a network drive to a destination disc. Instead, copy from a source
disc or network drive to your hard drive, and then copy from your
hard drive to the destination disc.
■ Do not use the notebook keyboard or move the notebook while the
notebook is writing to a disc. The write process is sensitive to
vibration.
