Cautions when running Windows XP/Windows
Me system tool "System Restore"
Running "System Restore," a system tool built in Windows XP and
Windows Me, may cause a malfunction in management data resulting in
all recorded or imported files to become unusable.
In order to prevent the loss of important music data, use the "SonicStage"
backup tool to backup music data before running "System Restore" on
your system. After using "System Restore," saved music data can be made
to play back by restoring with the "SonicStage" back up tool.
For the use of the "SonicStage" backup tool, please refer to the
"SonicStage" Help.
Writing to a CD-RW/CD-R disc
The "SonicStage" supplied with this unit is not compatible with writing of
music data to CD-RW/CD-R media.
Sony will not be liable for any loss of data resulting from such operation.
