Using Easy CD Creator
Easy CD Creator is a data transfer utility that enables you to
create or duplicate optical drive media. The utility is installed on
select models and can be used with any CD or DVD supported by
any optical drive in the system.
When Easy CD Creator is installed, a “Burn CD & DVDs with
Roxio” icon is displayed at Start > All Programs > Start Menu.
Understanding Easy CD Creator Features
Easy CD Creator includes 2 applications: DirectCD and Easy CD
Creator. The Easy CD Creator application includes CD Copier.
Use DirectCD with Windows Explorer to drag-and-drop data
files between your hard drive and a CD or DVD or between
your hard drive and a network drive. DirectCD is often used
to back up data files or to share them with other people.
Although DirectCD can be used with most application data
files, including Microsoft Office data files, it cannot be used
with audio files such as MP3 files.
Use Easy CD Creator, which includes CD Copier, to copy
either data files such as Microsoft Office files, or audio files
such as MP3 files, to a CD or DVD.
Use Easy CD Creator to copy individual audio files to a
CD or DVD, for example, to create a CD containing only
your favorites.
Use CD Copier to duplicate a CD or DVD.
