Responding to Buffer Underrun Errors

A buffer underrun error occurs when the flow of data to a drive or
medium is interrupted. In all cases, a buffer underrun error stops
the copying process. In some cases, a buffer underrun error may
permanently damage an optical medium.
Buffer underrun errors are often caused by:
■
Other applications, including screen savers and antivirus
software, that are open during a copying process.
■
A power interruption caused by a loose connection to
AC power or by an electrical storm.
■
Attempting a copying procedure while running the notebook
on a failing battery pack.
■
Attempting to copy directly between media or between a
medium and a network drive.
Occasionally, during a copying process that involves a network
drive, a buffer underrun error may occur because the temporary
files created during the process are being created on the hard
drive instead of the network drive. To change the location where
these temporary files are stored, select Tools from the Easy CD
Creator menu bar, select Options, then follow the instructions on
the screen.
