Topic: When I click an application icon, a message such as “You must insert
the application CD into your drive” appears and the software does not start.
❑ Some software applications require specific files that are located on the
application’s CD-ROM. Insert the disc and try starting the program again.
❑ Check to make sure you inserted the CD-ROM with the label side facing up.
Topic: Why doesn't my optical drive (DVD-RW or CD-RW) record at the
highest speed?
If you are having difficulty formatting DVD-RW or CD-RW media for recording
purposes, try changing the write speed to a lower setting.
See the online Help or documentation that came with your DVD or CD recording
software for details on adjusting write speed settings.
Topic: Why is my computer operating improperly after downloading the
CD-burning component of RealJukebox® software?
If you choose to download and use the optional RealJukebox software’s CD-
burning component to create CDs, the software feature may interfere with your
computer’s normal system operations.
For VAIO® computers that are equipped with all of the necessary components
for creating a CD-R or CD-RW, Sony recommends using the SonicStage software
application to create CDs. SonicStage software is preinstalled on your computer.
