Could someone please tell me how to set up my aspi drivers in xp i cant burn with cdrwin or nero and can only rip in audiocatalyst with analog not aspi.
Any help is greatly appreciated.Thanks Jason

yes i installed Fireburner 1.0.6 and 2.0.8 and get a error msg saying i dont have proper aspi driver even though device manager says everything is okay? Has anyone had any luck getting Fireburner to work in Win XP pro corp ver?

You can get them at www.adaptec.com. Do a search for aspi32.exe and run this file. It may help. You can also run aspichk.exe and it will detect and list the current version of the ASPI Layer on your system.

There is a group of Aspi Utils in a thing called ForceAspi, you can take the aspi layer out and put them in, as sometimes you end up with incorrect versions of one thing or another. Also at Adaptec there is a thing called Aspi Checker, which is a great help to see what you are doing. All my burner programs run under XP now.

the webpage:
http://xp.xyu.ca/winxp/aspi.zipthose arent for windows XP, it says before you install the aspi drivers this...
"this utility upgrades ASPI for windows 95/NT. Do you wish to continue?"i dont see a "XP" in the installation...
where the hell am i supposed to get the right drivers.

I had the same original problem as Jason in Audiocatalyst; I could only rip in Analog in Windows 2000. I ran the zip file posted by Brains and it worked, but Audiocatalyst still won't do MSCDEX. Anyone know how I can fix that to have all three ripping options?
Thanks

Right now, i don't believe there is any hope for XP and MSCDEX. Im having the same problem with AudioCatalyst and it drives me crazy. The ASPI drivers listed above work perfectly with 2000 but definitely not XP. The closest hope is here:

the aspi drivers on http://xp.xyu.ca/winxp/aspi.zip say they are for 2k/xp (read readme)
i suggest the driver has been modified, coz normally xou cannot install adaptec aspi drivers - they are locked to adaptec hardware. some releases do not have this lock. so i come to the conclusion that the adaptec driver 4.6 by http://xp.xyu.ca/winxp/aspi.zip is kinda cracksalzstange

I have AudioCatalyst ver 2.1
It's MSCDEX worked right off with WinXP Pro straight out of the box.cheers

I had the same problem with aspi drivers. Now, about audiocatalyst, I must tell you that the "Audiograbber 1.80" is most better.It doesn't need aspi drivers to rip the CD! Additionally, you must find the Xing mp3enc. After you setup this program, you can find in the instalation directory the mp3enc engine program. Use this program (read first the "mp3enc readme.txt" with the Audiograbber and be sure you will forget for ever the Audiocatalyst (The Audiocatalyst it is still one of the greatest mp3 rip programs). Enjoy!

I want to install Winon cd 3.6 or3.7 or3.8 on Windows XP professional but it doesn't work te way i want.I have a Plextor PX-R820T(scsi) and Adaptec AH2940UW scsi.Is there somebody who salved this problem?I don't know what to try anymore.

The Aspi driver works fine in XP. As it says in the text NT means that it works with XP as XP is built on NT.

I tried the drivers from http://xp.xyu.ca/winxp/aspi.zip, but they still don't work, 'cause I don't have an Adaptec device. My CD burner's a Matsus---a UJDA710 on an XP installed notebook. Any other drivers for it?

I have Philips CDRW400 and windows xp pro. Nero works great but Fireburner/CDRWin don't work at all as I can't install the aspi. On reboot after installing that aspi thing i get a no_more_irp_stacks error or something like that, then it reboots again and scandisk says that c:\documents and settings\myusername\ntuser.log is invalid size? What the problem? Wrong aspi version or...?

I'm having the same troubles as some people above. Even w/ Adaptec 4 running on my machine, XP gives me an error msg: There's a known compatability issue.....I've run the drivers update listed above w/ no luck. Says I have no qualified adaptec software and no matter what I do - i'm still stuck.
Any other offers of help? In the aspi.zip file, I run the check, the batch and the update. :/ XP has been cool to me otherwise, this is a pain though.

This is another discussion topic here - I downloaded the dll file, tossed it in my cdrwin dir and *bam* everything worked! Sweet!

i used the http://xp.xyu.ca/winxp/aspi.zip drivers and everything worked fine in xp for cdrwin, fireburner,and audiograbber. i just used the exe....... Thanx alot; btw if you think its hardware i have a tdk 12x burner...no adaptec software

I GOT IT TO WORK!! FIREBURNER AND XP!!! They work in perfect harmony together now, after over an hour of work. Unlike some of you most of those above suggestions did not work at all. If you are in the same position I was in, you are in luck! I went to www.yahoo.com typed in winaspi32.dll and found a site on geocities with a file called aspi!.zip and this solved it instantly, I rebooted and it works! Aspi!.zip http://www.geocities.com/aspi_driver/

I tried aspi32.exe too. I didnt work for me. Then I did as Blake, and now it works fine. THANK YOU BLAKE. YOU ARE MY HERO OF THE DAY.

Good luck and have fun

I am unable to get my Sprintscan Polaroid SCSI scanner to work. I have installed ASPI and it still is not found. Using Windows xp and Polarcolar Insight software.
Email help too please

Thanks Blake. I had the same problem, but now FireBurner runs like a champ with my Win XP system:
-HP 12X CD-R/RW
-AMD 1600+ XP
-MSI KT266A PRO MB

Why on God's Green Earth would nynone use the retroactive abortion known as Xing? AudioGrabber is superior: yes. It also lets you use a REAL encoder such as LAME. For heaven's sake stop using that Xing crap - it's the worst thing to happen to MP3.
