Preventing Buffer Underrun Errors
S
Did you know...
In extreme cases, some errors may render your
disc unusable. If this occurs, it may be necessary to start over
with a new disc and then properly dispose of the old disc.
A buffer underrun is an error that occurs when the flow of data to
the CD-Recorder is interrupted. When a buffer underrun occurs,
the CD creation process is halted.
The following suggestions may help prevent buffer underruns:
Close other programs and disable tasks or applications
running in the background such as screen savers and virus
software.
Ensure that the temporary files created during CD recording
are created on the local hard disk, not in a directory on a
network drive.
Note
To change the location where the temporary files are
stored, click Tools from the Easy CD Creator menu, select
Options, and then follow the on-screen instructions.
Do not attempt to record CDs from files on a network. If the
desired files are on a network, copy them to your local hard
disk before recording the CD.
Note
A buffer underrun error can occur on single or dual optical
drive systems (CD-ROM, CD-RW, or DVD-ROM drives).
