Due to manufacturing and quality variations in third party 
optical media (e.g., CD or DVD) or optical media 
players/recorders, in certain cases, your Toshiba optical 
drive may not record on certain optical media that bear 
the applicable logo, or playback optical media recorded 
by other PCs or optical media recorders. Additionally, 
certain optical media recorded on your optical drive may 
not playback or operate properly on other PCs or optical 
media players. These problems are not due to any defect 
in your Toshiba PC or optical drive. Please refer to your 
PC's product specification for listing of specific format 
compatibilities.
Copy protection technology may also prevent or limit 
recording or viewing of certain optical media.
For details on how to use the software, please refer to the 
respective Online Help menus.
