What folder should aspi files be installed to
« on: November 26, 2002, 02:14:32 pm »

In MJ 388 and 392 my CD Writer is not found. I let the program download and install the necessary aspi files but it was still not recognized.

Then I went to the Adaptec page and downloaded aspi_v471.2.exe and extracted the files to
\windows\temp, still with no success.

Can anyone tell me what I should do?

Thank you

Do you have Nero installed?

Just unpacking the files doesn't do anything.  You have to run the installer... aspiinst.exe

Yep, My First Mistake

all the files should be under c:\adaptec

I don't know why they do that.

After you install you need to run the program

aspichk.exe

to make sure everything went ok.

Thanks for the quick responses guys.

Jim H, I don't have Nero.

RemyJ, followed your advice and all works great again. Thank you.

King, I had tried RemyJ's advice before I saw your post and it worked fine. But I appreciate the further advice you gave.

Holden :D
