When I double-click an application icon, a message such as 'You must insert the application CD into your
drive' appears and the software does not start

Make sure you place the disc in the tray with the label side facing outwards.
Why does my DVD-RW not record at the highest speed?
If you want to use other media and are having difficulty formatting the disc with the above speeds, change
the writing speed to a lower setting.
To change the writing speed from the default to a lower speed, proceed as follows:
1 Go to My Computer from the Start menu.
2 Right-click the disc drive icon.
3 Select Properties.
4 Select the Recordings tab.
5 Under Desktop CD/DVD recording, change the current writing speed to 4x or 1x (for the DVD-RW).
6 Click OK.
The speed is changed and recording should run smoothly.
The reading speed of DVD-RWs is slow
Generally, the reading speed of a DVD-RW is slower than that of a CD/DVD-ROM or CD/DVD-R. The reading
speed can also vary depending on the type of format.
