ASPI DRIVERS IN WIN2K

[STENCH 0]

I have a Tekram DC-310 series SCSI controller card, and basically i'm having the same trouble as everyone else. Damned ASPI driver errors in Win2k.

 

I'm trying to run CDRWin, and i hear that there are some drivers available for download, however i'm unable to find them.

 

After reading through this message forum I found some people saying that there was a new ASPI layer available, and to download the following file: aspi-4.60-1019.zip

 

However, after running this file on my PC, i had to restart in safe mode and remove it as Win2K would no longer boot.

 

Is anyone able to help me? I really love this new OS, and i don't want to switch back to WinBloze98.

I have the same SCSI controller, and I could not burn nuffin with it. Tekram say it's supported, but HCL doesn't mention it. I think Tekram's definition of WORKING, means it's detected. I can use my burner as a normal CD drive, but that's it.

 

To cut a long story short, I had to get another SCSI controller so i could burn. I've NEVER been able to get tekram drivers to work, in any OS only symbios logic drivers. Basically the card is cheap and badly supported.

 

When i do use this card in 2k, I get ASPI flush errors in EZ CD Creator 4

Not like i'm a bright and aspi-programer or anything, but i have a Advansys

pci scsi card, and a adaptect 2940uw card.

 

When i installed adaptec's aspi drivers for my adaptec card it checked and veryfied that i in fact actually had a adaptec card (othwerwise it wont install).

 

But when i wanted to insatll the very same driver for my Advansys scsi card, adaptec's aspi driver refused to co-operate.

SO i had to install Adaptec Easy CD Creator 4 Delux (dumb name), and after that, i installed the ASPI driver update from ftp.adaptec.com (as the aspi drivers that came with adaptec easy cd creator 4 was sucky, and not really working to well.).

Now though, the aspi drivers from adatec worked great!

 

The filename you want to look for is called, ASPI32.EXE or something, ther's also a ASPICHK.EXE that veryfies that the aspi installation was successfull or not, also note that when you've installed adaptec easy cd creator 4, aspichk.exe tells you the aspi layers are installed, but there are some problems.. after the aspi update it works.

 

If you don't find the driver, email me and i'll send em to you, radx@hotmail.com.
