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.
- Although useful, the Freedom Toaster is older, and may be prone to frequent break-downs. It is recommended to use the CD / DVD burners at the open Seneca computer lab.
Procedure to Download and Burn a CD/DVD in TEL Open Lab:
- Set "Master Selector" on CPU to Internal.
- Power on Computer.
- Place CD/DVD media into the writable CD/DVD drive.
- To access the boot menu quicker, press ESC at the network boot procedure
- Select 2. Win 7 from the boot menu
NOTE: It may be preferable to boot WINDOWS as opposed to Matrix (since you may have limited account space in your Matrix account to download a DVD image).
- Download the appropriate Image to your Windows Desktop:
- After the image has been downloaded to your desktop, right-click on the image file, and in the context menu, select Open With, and then select Nero Express Essentials in the sub-menu.
- Click Burn to start the burning process to the CD/DVD. This process will take several minutes.
- When the burn is completed, exit the application, and remove your CD/DVD from the machine.
- Remove your downloaded images on your desktop.
- Log-out and shutdown the computer.
- It is highly recommended to test to see if your install CD/DVD image works by going to your SEC520 lab, and see if the CD and DVD media correctly boots up in the computer lab...
