we recommend that you do not use your notebook for other tasks while creating a cd.
if you record copyrighted material on a cd, you need permission from the copyright owner. otherwise, you may be violating copyright law and be subject to payment of damages and other remedies. if you are uncertain about your rights, contact your legal advisor.
to create music cds:
1 insert a blank cd-r or cd-rw disc into your cd-rw or combination dvd/cd-rw drive.
you must have a cd-rw or combination dvd/cd-rw drive in your notebook to create a cd. to determine the type of drive in the modular bay, examine the drive tray's plastic cover and compare the logo to those listed in "identifying drive types" on page 74. to be able to create a cd, the imprint must say recordable rewriteable. if the drive you want to use is not in the modular bay, you will need to swap modules. for more information about swapping modules, see "changing drives" on page 160.
most car stereos read cd-r discs, but do not read cd-rw discs.
