Safety Precautions
2
The following diagrams illustrate the precautions to be taken when using
your CD-R/RW drive.
You must not use the drive in any manner other than that specified in this guide.
Avoid exposing your eyes or skin to direct or scattered radiation.
CAUTION
Do not attempt to repair the CD-R/RW drive yourself. Contact
your dealer or local SAMSUNG representative for all repairs.
If you make any adjustments or perform any operations other
than those specified in this guide, you run the risk of exposure to
hazardous radiation.
WARRANTY
Please refer to the Samsung limited warranty statements.
Precautions
1.To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not expose
this appliance to rain or moisture.
2. Always check each disc for cracks before using it. If there are
cracks on the surfaces, especially around the border of the
center hole, we recommend that you make a copy of the disc
immediately and then stop using it. If you continue using the
disc, it will probably develop more cracks and eventually cause
irreparable damage.
3. Do not use poor quality discs:
● From unknown sources
● Without any copyright
● Scratched or damaged in any way

Installing the CD Record Utility
8
To record data on a CD-R or CD-RW disc in the CD-R/RW drive, you must first
install the CD record utility. For compatibility reasons, you are recommended to
uninstall any existing software of the same type before installing this utility.
1Insert the disc supplied with the CD-R/RW drive in the drive.
2Follow the instructions displayed on the screen to install the utility. Refer to
the separate utility documentation for further details.
3Copy the SHELLEX.DLL file from the root directory on the disc to the
DIRECT CD folder.This patch file handles possible errors detected after
checking the DIRECT CD properties in the Windows Explorer.
4Store the utility disc in a safe place.
The SAMSUNG device driver enables discs in the CD-R/RW drive to be read but not
recorded in an MS-DOS environment; the driver is located in the D driver folder on
the CD record utility disc.
No additional device driver is needed for Windows 95/98/2000/ME/NT4.0,
as the default Windows device driver is used.
You can check that the CD-R/RW
drive has been correctly detected by Windows. To do so, proceed as follows.
Installing the Device Driver
1Make the C:\SAMSUNG directory.
2Copy the files from the diskette to the C:\SAMSUNG directory.
To do so, type COPY A:
*.*
C:\SAMSUNG after the C:\ prompt and press
[Enter].
3Edit the CONFIG.SYS file.
Add the DEVICE=C:\SAMSUNG\SSCDROM.SYS \D:SSCD000 /V entry.
4Edit the AUTOEXEC.BAT file.
Add the C:\SAMSUNG\MSCDEX /D:SSCD000 entry.
5Reboot the computer.
1Double-click on the My Computer icon on your desktop.
2Double-click on the Control Panel folder.
3Double-click on the System icon.
4Click on the Device Manager tab.
5Expand the CD-ROM branch.

Using the CD-R/RW Drive
10
To ensure a long service life for your discs and drive, follow the precautions below when storing and cleaning your discs.
1Push the power button and boot the computer.
2After booting the computer, open the disc
compartment by pressing the Eject button.
3Insert the disc (CD) with the label on the disc
facing upwards and close the disc compartment
by pressing the Eject button.
The indicator light comes on.
4 Play the disc (CD).
1Do not place a disc in direct sunlight.
2Store a disc vertically in a well-ventilated and
stable location.
3Do not write or attach a label on a disc.
4Do not drop a disc or place heavy objects on it.
Playing Audio CDs
Run the CD player supplied with Windows or your sound card. You can listen to
the CD by connecting headphones to the appropriate connector. If you have
installed the appropriate player, such as Microsoft Windows Media Player, you can
adjust the volume using the headphone volume control on the drive front panel.
Playing Video CDs
Set up and run the SOFT MPEG program.
Storing and Cleaning Your Discs
5Do not touch the surface of a disc; hold it by the
edges.
6To clean a disc, polish lightly from the inside of the
disc to the outside with a soft cotton cloth.
7Do not leave the disc compartment open when you
are not using it.
1
Check whether the source file is corrupted.
2
Optimize the hard disk by using the Windows defragmenter feature:
START / PROGRAMS / ACCESSORIES / SYSTEM TOOLS / DISC DEFRAGMENTER
3
Decompress the hard disk if it is compressed.
4
Make sure that the space available on the hard disk is at least twice the size
of the largest file to be recorded on the disc.
5
If you wish to record more than 1 000 small files:
● First create an image file and copy the image file to the disc; refer to the
section entitled "CD Creation from CD Image" in the CD record utility
documentation
● Choose the low record speed
● Compress small files and then record them
Solving Recording Problems
If you have any problems recording via your CD-R/RW drive, follow the
appropriate instructions below for the source that you are using.
To play audio or video CDs in your CD-R/RW drive, proceed as follows.

1
Copy the network drive contents to the hard disk and then from the hard disk
to the CD-R/RW drive.
1
Clean the source CD, if necessary.
2
Create an image file and then copy the image file to the CD-R/RW drive.
3
Check the CD-ROM drive record speed.
There are two recording methods :
● Low-speed (file by file)
● High-speed (transfer of an image file from the hard disk)
4
If the transfer speed of the CD-ROM drive is slower than the record speed,
reduce the record speed.
1
Before starting to record, determine the audio and transfer speeds by using
the [Tool/System Test] option in Easy CD Creator. Then, choose an
appropriate record speed. If the audio speed is less than 2X, first create an
image file on the hard disk.
2
To perform a record test before copying to a CD, select the [Test/Copy]
option.
3
If the test fails, try recording on another disc.
4
The CD-R/RW drive does not support high-speed recording to CD-RW discs
above 8X. Discs above CD-RW 8X use different rewriting methods and can
only be read via the CD-R/RW drive.
5
When viewing CD-RW 2X properties or performing a full erase, the “WRITE
SPEED 4X DISPLAY” error is displayed unexpectedly. The CD-R/RW drive
has been operating continuously for 20 minutes after completing the full erase.

Solving Technical Problems
14
The CD-R/RW drive is not
detected by the computer.
After installing the CD-R/RW
drive, the PC gets slower.
◆ Check that the power, audio and IDE cables are
correctly connected to the computer.
◆ Change the IDE cable and reconnect it to the computer.
Preferably, connect a second IDE cable to the CD-R/RW
drive in master mode; see page 7 for further details.
◆ Check the position of the jumper in the master/slave
select terminal.
Problem Meaning / Solution
The CD-R/RW drive is not
recognized by MS-DOS.
◆ Reinstall the device driver or update it with the latest
version by downloading it from the Samsung Web site.
The CD-R/RW drive is not
detected by Windows.
◆ This case may occur when there is a Windows
installation problem; reinstall Windows.
No sound is heard from an
audio CD.
◆ Check whether the audio cable is correctly connected
to the sound output terminal on the CD-R/RW drive and
the sound card CD-IN terminal.
◆ Check that the sound card is operational.
◆ Adjust the volume control.
A CD is not read or is read too
slowly.
◆ Install the latest version of the device driver.
◆ Check whether the CD is of good quality and clean it,
if necessary.
When the MPEG software plays
a Video CD, the pictures are not
regular and the running speed is
too slow.
◆ Adjust the size of the replay screen.
◆ After checking the display resolution, adjust it, if
necessary.
The Disc is not in message is
displayed even though a disc
has been inserted.
◆ The computer may not recognize the disc if you start
playback too quickly after inserting the disc.
Open and close the disc compartment and try again.
◆ Clean the disc and try again.
The CD-R/RW drive is not
detected after it is connected to
a sound card.
◆ The interface mode of the sound card is AT-BUS.
You must therefore connect the CD-R/RW drive to the
IDE port on the PC mother board, rather than to the
sound card, or install an IDE-compatible sound card.
The disc compartment will not
open.
◆ Check that the power cable is correctly connected.
◆ Power off and disconnect the PC. Insert a pin or
unfolded paper clip in the emergency hole and push
firmly until the disc compartment opens.
