Introduction

System meeting the following requirements is needed in order to use USB 2.0 operation with this drive.

• Computer that is equipped with a USB 2.0 – compliant USB connector or PCI adapter card, and on which the USB 2.0 EHCI (Enhanced Host Controller Interface) driver software

has been installed.

The USB 2.0 EHCI driver software is supplied with currently available PCI

adapter cards that conform to USB 2.0. Further, Microsoft has released the USB

2.0 EHCI driver software for Windows, therefore it is also possible to use this driver software with Windows. If you want to know in detail, please contact your USB 2.0 adapter dealer or consult your PC manufacturer, or consult the Microsoft Corporation Web site.

• Please note: Certain software (i.e. particularly those including Video playback) may

require a considerably increased specification PC to give acceptable results. While this Blu-ray Writer can read DVD-video or BD-MV(BD-ROM) discs, decoding them to display on your pc’s monitor requires separate MPEG, H.264 or VC-1 decoding that is done by separate hardware (either an MPEG, H.264 or VC-1 decoder card or MPEG, H.264 or VC-1 decoding done by your video card), or separate software that you install to do MPEG, H.264 or VC-1 decoding. For further details, refer to the documentation that comes with MPEG, H.264 or VC-1 software.
