I have now sorted the ASPI problem. I now have a message saying that my ATAPI 52xmax CD-Rom does not read cd-g disks is there anything I can do? I have a HP9510i cd-writer which is fine to copy.

Thanks

Alex

I suspect your hardware is NOT fully compliant, including your reader and writer. You should double check this with all pertinent hardware on your system. Try these links at HP's web site(applicable for your writer only -- you didn't specify your reader):

If you haven't already, check out this post http://www.mtu.com/vbulletin/showthr...p?threadid=506 , it might be of help.

If you are SURE your hardware is compliant, I would first check the firmware for an update or patch for both CD/CDR drives.

The fact that your CDROM does not read CDG discs is a hardware limitation. If it won't read the extra R,S,T,U,V,W bits, it won't read CDG. Software cannot retrive the RW codes when the hardware doesn't read them.

In our latest Microstudio V2.303, we don't even present CDROM drives for selections. We had so many support calls where a non-CDG CDROM drive was at fault that we chose to not show CDROM drives in 2.303. It is best to not try to use your CDROM drive.
