Download and Burn Image in TEL Open Lab

Please be aware of these facts when using the CD/DVD burners at Seneca's computer labs: Most labs at Seneca College require students externally boot their lab machines (i.e. from removable disk drive) in order to use the CD / DVD burner... On the other hand, the TEL OPEN LAB (Rm. T2113) allows students to boot Internally in order to download CD / DVD images onto their Desktop, and then burn them.

The TEL OPEN LAB (Rm. T2113) is one of the few areas at Seneca that allows the student to burn CD/DVDs without having to boot from an external (removable) hard drive.
