To Create Or Copy Cds - HP OmniBook xe4100 - Notebook PC Manual

Hint
Important
Basic Operation
Using CDs or DVDs
Click Start, All Programs (or Programs), Multimedia, DVD Player, InterVideo
WinDVD.
For Windows XP, you can also use Windows Media Player to play DVD movies.
To play DVD movies on a TV, see "To use a TV set as a monitor" on page 85.
For best performance while playing movies on battery power, set the Control Panel
power scheme to Portable/Laptop (Windows XP), or set the SpeedStep setting to Max
Performance (Windows 2000). See "How the computer manages power automatically"
on page 52.
DVDs can have regional codes embedded in the disc data. These codes prevent DVD
movies from being played outside the region of the world in which they are sold. If you
get a region code error, you are trying to play a DVD intended for a different region.
Most DVD drives let you change the region code only a limited number of times
(usually no more than four). When you reach this limit, your last change to the region
code will be hard-coded on the DVD drive, and will be permanent. Your HP warranty
does not cover the expense of correcting this situation. Refer to the help for your DVD
player software for details about setting region codes.

To create or copy CDs

If your computer came with a CD-RW drive, it also includes software that lets you copy
or create CDs.
Click Start, All Programs (or Programs), Multimedia, CD Writer, RecordNow,
RecordNow.
For Windows XP, you can use Windows Media Player to create audio CDs, and
Windows Explorer to create data CDs using a CD-RW drive.
Refer to the software's help for details about creating or copying CDs. HP recommends
using HP C4403A (CD-R) or C4404A (CD-RW) media—read and write quality may
vary for other media.
