Hope this is the correct forum... Also, I'm new to these forums; am I right that there's no 'Preview' facility when composing messages? I suspect this one, with its tabular data, may not look right when it appears. Anyway: I'm a DVD and Nero novice, so would appreciate some help understanding this please. If I use the Nero Info Tool, under the ASPI tab there's a drop down box with two entries: System ASPI, and Nero ASPI, which respectively show the following details when selected: Nero ASPI --------- File Version Length Date ----- ------- ---- Nero ASPI WNASPI32.DLL 2.0.1.74 164112 bytes October 26, 2004 "ASPI is installed and working properly" System ASPI ------------ WnASPI32.dll n/a 126464 bytes January 12, 2005 "ASPI file(s) are missing" How do I interpret this please? Should I take some action (what?) to install these missing System ASPI files? Apart from some problems with one of the programs I use, MemoriesOnTV (arising I'm 99% sure from a bug), all my 'DVD stuff' seems to be working OK. I can play DVDs with various players, such as PowerDVD and Nero ShowTime, and write DVDs with Nero Express. Any advice would be much appreciated please. -- Terry, West Sussex, UK
