Copying CDs and DVDs

NOTE:

Ensure that you observe all copyright laws when creating CDs or DVDs.

This section applies only to computers that have a CD-RW, DVD+/-RW, or
CD-RW/DVD (combo) drive.

NOTE:

The types of CD or DVD drives offered by Dell may vary by country.

The following instructions explain how to make an exact copy of a CD or
DVD using Roxio Creator Plus - Dell Edition. You can also use Roxio Creator
Plus for other purposes, such as creating music CDs from audio files stored on
your computer or backing up important data. For help, open Roxio Creator
Plus, and then click the question mark icon in the upper-right corner of the
window.

How to Copy a CD or DVD

NOTE:

CD-RW/DVD combo drives cannot write to DVD media. If you have a

CD-RW/DVD combo drive and you experience recording problems, check for
available software patches on the Sonic support website at

sonic.com.

The DVD-writable drives installed in Dell™ computers can write to and read
DVD+/-R, DVD+/-RW and DVD+R DL (dual layer) media, but cannot
write to and may not read DVD-RAM or DVD-R DL media.

NOTE:

Most commercial DVDs have copyright protection and cannot be copied

using Roxio Creator Plus.

1 Open Roxio Creator Plus.
2 Under the Copy tab, click Disc Copy.
3 To copy the CD or DVD:

If you have one CD/DVD drive, ensure that the settings are correct, and
then click Disc Copy. The computer reads your source CD or DVD
and copies the data to a temporary folder on your computer hard
drive.

When prompted, insert a blank CD or DVD into the drive and
click OK.
