Note: if you want to reboot your computer, make sure you remove the system recovery disc from the disc drive.

Note: CyberLink Power2Go sends the title and other information from your created disc to LabelPrint. This information is added to the title and track fields respectively, so you do not have to reenter this information when creating your disc label. Once the label is created, it is automatically imported into the Disc Manager to help you identify it later.

4. Click the Next button to proceed, and then Start to begin the restoration process.

5. Follow all the steps in the wizard to restore your computer.

6. Once the restore is complete, click Shut Dow n to turn off your computer or Reboot to log back into Windows.

Launching LabelPrint

The last step to creating your disc is making a label for it. You can do this in the CyberLink LabelPrint program, which you can open by clicking Launch LabelPrint in Utilities.

See the help file in that program for detailed information about creating disc labels.

Additional Burning Notes and Features

The following are some additional burning notes and features for CyberLink Power2Go that you may find extremely useful when burning discs.

Using the CyberLink ISO Viewer

With CyberLink Power2Go you can use the CyberLink ISO Viewer to view disc images in the ISO, P2I (Power2Go image), or RDF format on your computer’s hard drive. This convenient tool lets you view the contents of an image file, and quickly extract files or burn the image to a disc.

You can launch the CyberLink ISO Viewer by selecting CyberLink IS O Viewer 12 option from the Windows start menu, or right-clicking on an image file on your hard drive and then selecting CyberLink IS O Viewer 12.

When in the CyberLink ISO Viewer, you can perform the following functions:

if you want to mount the image as a drive on your computer, click the button. See Mounting a Disc Image for more detailed information about mounting disc images.

Multisession Discs

When you burn a data disc in CyberLink Power2Go, you can create a multisession disc that lets you burn additional content to a disc that is not full. CyberLink Power2Go creates a multisession disc whenever you burn a CD, DVD or Blu-ray Disc and choose not to close the disc.

With multisession discs you can continue to add content it until the disc is full or closed, at which point you can no longer add any further data.

Cyb erLink Power2Go

Note: the amount of disk space available on the drive that contains the temporary directory should meet or exceed the suggested hard disk space requirements in System Requirements. This is because CyberLink Power2Go creates and stores the temp file in this folder, before burning it to disc.
