Folks,

I built a brand new machine yesterday. It has a SCSI CD-RW drive in it and Windows XP. The only software installed besides devices drivers is MJ 8.388 and SystemWorks 2002.

I put a CD in the drive and it is recognised just fine. I can play and rip the CD using MS Media Player. When I attempt to play a CD in MJ it simply aborts. When I try to rip a CD MJ crashes and XP submits an error report.

I have veried that Adaptec ASPI 4.71 is correctly installed.


Please advise on a way to make this work.

Thanks

Check 2 settings in MJ:

Options>Device Settings

Options>CD Writer Settings
If MJ is has been trying to use internal ASPI, then uncheck box so that it will use external Adaptec ASPI

What do they say?

Do u have XP SP1 installed?

If nothing obvious then get down on your machine by:
Reinstalling ASPI again. Make sure nothing else is running except for the installer. If no change then uninstall MJ and reinstall.

If still no change then try to narrow it down to either a system problem or MJ problem. Install Easy CD Creator & DirectCD (if u have it, if not try some other Jukebox package). Do some testing with it.

I will try using external ASPI.

In the mean time, I have fixed it by simply telling MJ that the SCSI drive is an EIDE drive and now it works just fine. I got this idea after installing Audiograbber and looking at the settings it was using.

SCSI is IDE? Go figure!
