Buried deep at the bottom of another thread about getting rips to work better, Doof suggested:
Hmm... what mode do you have your CD's set up for, ASPI or IDE? Whichever one it is, try the other. I had a problem just listening to CD's in MJ8 because I was trying to use ASPI, but when I switched to IDE (actually I let MJ autodetect it and it chose IDE) the problem went away. If you are using ASPI (like if MJ autodetects and chooses that option) you may also want to try installing the latest ASPI update that's available from Roxio. Somewhere here in Interact is a link to it. If you do a search you should be able to find it.
Could someone explain how or where I make MJ switch between ASPI and direct IDE interfaces? I didn't see anything obvious when I did a re-install. I don't know whether MJ is using ASPI right now or not, but I do know that I have dll files with ASPI in their names in my windows directories.
I am starting a new thread in hopes that my question will be seen.
Thanks,
