After many, many successful rips, I now can't get SmartRipper to work. It reports that it can't access my ASPI drive.
This is a NEW problem that came up since I installed muthafriggin ACE Mega Codec Pak. It screwed up my system so I uninstalled ACE Mega and had to reinstall Windows XP. Tip - avoid Codec packs.
I've tried every ASPI tip I've come across including ForceASPI, reinstall of Adaptec ASPI drivers (not sure if I did it correctly) and reinstalling Nero 5 to get their ASPI along with it.
No dice. I get this error message when I run ASPICHK...

The sentence to note is that ASPI drivers are present but there is some third party issue... The "helper drivers won't initialize" whatever the F that means. Can't find any articles on that subject.
BTW, I have an HP DVD+RW burner. It worked just fine before ACE Mega and my Windows XP reinstall.
