If you are unable to remedy a problem after trying the following suggestions, please consult your dealer, service center, or local Transcend branch office. We also have FAQ and Support services on our website at www. transcendusa. com. Operating system cannot detect the CD/DVD Writer Check the following: 1. If not, try using the Transcend-supplied USB cable to connect the CD/DVD Writer to your computer. The CD/DVD Writer is powered directly via a computer USB port; however, the power supplied by the USB port on some older computers is below the 5V DC required to power the CD/DVD Writer. Please make sure to connect the USB cable to both USB ports on your computer. This will provide the additional power necessary to run the drive. Both USB connectors are required to provide adequate power. If not, refer to the user's manual of your computer (or motherboard) to enable it. If you have connected all ends of the USB cable and still have power-related problems while reading / writing data, we recommend that you purchase a Transcend USB Power Adapter (TS-PA2A) to provide the power necessary to operate the CD/DVD Writer. (Please see the Transcend Website or contact your local dealer for availability) My computer does not recognize CD/DVD Writer 1. A single USB port may not provide enough power for the CD/DVD Writer to function. Make sure you plug both large ends of the USB cable directly into your computer's USB ports.
