Protecting Playback
To prevent the loss of playback or playback quality:
■ For optimal playback quality, save your work and close all
open applications before playing a CD or a DVD.
■ Dock or undock the notebook from an optional docking
device before or after playing a disc, not while playing a disc.
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 may 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 be cleared. To return
to your work, press the power/standby 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.
