"Error Message

No Adapters Found"

I downloaded latested ASPI and installed on the system this is all with EAC and all other rippers say other message like winamp about encoder and decoders how do i fix the ASPI ?????? please help

I think you need to have it enabled in your BIOS before you install Windows...

Nevermind me, Im probably thinking of something else..hehehe.

I"m guessing that Harsh! is thinking of power management :P
with 9x, I don't think you have to install the aspi layer, as it's already there by default.

so i just need to enable it in BIOS ok cool i will check it out :)

nooooo
there's nothing in CMOS/BIOS that affect the Windows ASPI layer :dry:

ok so whats the problem ????? :no: :no:

Try nero's aspi interface,

Download the demo and extract "WNASPI32.DLL" from the installer to the windows/system folder.

Or maybe post in Neowin , I see they have a separate win98 section . Just a thought tho. Win98 seems so far away......... I'v forgot all those problems . :)

Lol well i know its a old system its Second Edition tho if that makes a different i glad i dont have these problems on my xp system

Google aspi...the first 3 pages will give you good info.
Also, here is a good site:

I have tried to fix the aspi layer on several 98 machines and the only real fix seemed to be a fresh install.

Fresh install of windows or ASPI

P.S Thanks for website will give force a go

Windows....even though I have been able to fix the aspi layer the systems was still very buggy.
Your wecome, hope you get it sorted.
