To write data to a CD-RW or CD-R disc 1
You can use Sony SonicStage and Microsoft ® Windows ® XP to write data to a CD-R or CD-RW disc. To create a CD-R disc that
is readable in a CD-ROM drive, make sure that you finish the writing process before ejecting the disc. For more information,
see the instructions included with Windows
® XP.
Do not strike or shake the computer while writing data to a disc.
Always use the AC adapter as the power source for your computer if you are writing data to a CD-RW or CD-R disc.
Using battery power may result in data transfer failure.
Notes on writing data to a CD-RW or CD-R disc
 For optimal writing speed, deactivate the screen saver and exit anti-virus software before writing data to a disc.
 For best results, use CD-Rs that are compatible with 8x speed.
 Your computer does not support 1x writing speed.
 Memory-resident disc utilities may cause unstable operation or data loss. Deactivate these utilities before writing
data to a disc.
 If your notebook computer has preinstalled Microsoft ® Office applications, such as Excel, Word, and Outlook, turn off
the FindFast application.
