Blu-ray™ discs BD-R, BD-R DL discs can be written only once. The recorded data cannot be erased or changed. BD-RE, BD-RE DL discs can be recorded more than once. Writing discs You can use the DVD Super Multi drive to write data to either CD-R, CD- RW, DVD-R, DVD-R DL, DVD-RW, DVD+R, DVD+R DL, DVD+RW or DVD-RAM discs.
Before writing or rewriting Based on TOSHIBA's limited compatibility testing, we suggest the following manufacturers of disc media, however, it must be noted that disc quality can affect write or rewrite success rates. Please also be aware that in no event does TOSHIBA guarantee the operation, quality or performance of any disc.
BD-RE: Panasonic Corporation BD-RE DL: Panasonic Corporation BD-R TL: TDK. SHARP BD-RE TL: Panasonic Corporation Some types and formats of DVD-R DL and DVD+R DL discs may be unreadable. Disc created in DVD-R DL format4 (Layer Jump Recording) cannot be read.
Set the computer on a level surface and avoid places subject to vibration such as airplanes, trains or cars. In addition, do not use the computer on an unstable surface such as a stand. Keep mobile phones and other wireless communication devices away from the computer.
When you back up a DVD disc, be sure that the source drive supports recording to DVD-R, DVD-R DL, DVD-RW, DVD+R, DVD+R DL or DVD+RW media - if this is not the case then the source disc might not be backed up correctly. When you back up a DVD-R, DVD-R DL, DVD-RW, DVD+R, DVD+R DL or DVD+RW disc, be sure to use the same type of disc.
Use DVD-Video discs with a region code which is either "the same as the factory default setting" (if applicable) or "ALL". Do not playback video while watching or recording television programs using other applications. Doing so may cause video playback or television program recording errors.

Chapter 6 Troubleshooting TOSHIBA has designed this computer for durability, however, should problems occur you are able to use the procedures detailed in this chapter to help determine the cause. All users should become familiar with this chapter as knowing what might go wrong can help prevent problems from occurring in the first place.
Check all cables to ensure they are correctly and firmly attached to the computer - loose cables can cause signal errors. Inspect all connecting cables for loose wires and all connectors for loose pins.
Hardware If you cannot find a software problem, you should then check the setup and configuration of your hardware. First run through the items in the preliminary checklist as described previously the.
If you are using the AC adaptor, check that the wall outlet is working by plugging in another device, such as a lamp. Verify that the computer is on by looking at the Power indicator. If the indicator is glowing, the computer is on. Also, try turning the computer off and then on.
AC power If you have trouble turning on the computer with the AC adaptor connected you should check the status of the DC IN/Battery indicator. Please refer to the Power Condition Descriptions section for further information.
Problem Procedure Battery doesn’t charge when the AC adaptor is attached. If the battery is completely discharged, it will not begin charging immediately, in these instances you should wait a few minutes before trying again.
