  • In the first column by the left, look down to the last line where there are two boxes. Mark the Verify  box.
  • Move to the right column at the bottom where you will see the settings. Here you can set the number of copies and the writing speed. Leave the number of copies as it is otherwise you want to burn more than a copy.
  • Change the writing speed to your desire. But for accurate result, change it to a lower speed. Some disc does not support a writing speed below 3.0. In this case, if you select 2.0 as your writing speed, it will be change to 3.0 automatically or as specified by  the disc.

  • It will get to a certain point where your disc tray is been ejected. For laptop users, you might get an error message here due to the fact that your tray cannot be automatically closed by the system unlike the Desktop users. Don’t panic, just close the tray manually and…the operation continues.
  • Wait for the operation to be completed and then your disc will be eject automatically.
