1. Connect the AC adapters to your computer and the external optical drive unit.
Be sure to connect the AC adapter. If the battery is completely
discharged, the burning CD process will be canceled.
2. Insert a blank CD-R/RW onto the external CD drive unit. (If you see a dialog box
or window, close it.)
3. Click start – All Programs – Create Product Recovery CD-ROM.
4. In the Bootable CD Creator SE1.0 window, select the appropriate speed from the
speed pull-down menu, then, click Create Recovery CD.

Never touch the keyboard, the mouse or the screen during burning

to each CD-R/RW in the order of burning so that you will set them in correct
order when recovering.
