Hello Rad,
Found you through Google as I have problems with Adaptec.  Before installing it a message came out saying that there was a problem with XP, I installed it just the same but keep getting problems.  So after a search I found your site from where I downloaded the Force Aspi which says to extract it to a directory...which directory?  Sprry not familiar with this.
I instead just opened the zip file and double clicked on the InstASPI.exe which told me that it was installed, I rebooted and had a check with Aspichk which tells me that 4 things are missing.  Can you guide me step by step please, I'm not very familiar with all this.

When I had W98 had not problem with Creator CD, then I upgraded to W2000 Pro and had problems now that I upgraded to XP still having problems.

I tried to uninstall it too but it wont and it gives me an error 703 unable to load installation instructions. ???

PLEASE PLEASE CAN YOU HELP ME?
Thank you very much

Thank you Rad for your help, the Aspi layers have been installed but I now have another problem.  Now I have another problem and hope you can help me with this one too.
When I click on the links you have given me nothing happens, it doesn't take me where it should and sometimes the page gets all black and then back to this forum.

Even when I click on the links in my email the same thing happens, it doesn't take me to that page.

Any idea why?  This happened since I installed Creator CD but now it has been uninstalled fortunately.

Thanks for your help

Hi Rad,
Sory did not reply before but found out why this was happening.  Thought that by installing XP this would find all the drivers etc. but this being a 2001 pc the drivers had to be reinstalled.  The problem was that thinking I would not need the cd to restore the pc which came with it I threw it away...so had to search for them luckily found some which have been updated but others no.  However the pc is working ok.  I have installed the ForceAspi and the Aspicheck says they are ok so I wonder if I should install Create CD as I have always used this one to convert mp3 into a playable music cd,  I also have Nero 7 but don't know if this does the same.
Have a nice day

Thanks for the advice Rad, I have added that link to my favourite, too long to read and understand at this time of the evening, 10pm over here.  I have been using Jet Audio so far for transforming cd into mp3 but will look into the Lame program too.
May I ask you another question which has nothing to do with adaptec?
I'm sure you said YES...lol
My son downloaded some Jamaican video clips, but it says FILE how do I put them on a cd for him to watch....I tried with Windows media player which asked me if I wanted to change something ...can't remember ??? and I was able to watch it...any hint
Thanks a lot
