Upgrade to XP Problems?

[jobiesmi]

Hi you guys,
Just upgraded to Win XP Pro from Win 2000. Then after reinstalling and reregistering Microstudio V2.517, it will no longer recognize my Plextor PX-708A. When I click on “Detect Drives” the Plextor is listed there and says “Yes” to both “Karaoke and “Audio”, but when I select it and hit “OK” nothing happens? Have tried running ASPICHK, and then installing what is supposed to be their latest drivers that will work with Win XP. Still no luck.

ASPICHK gives me the following results:
ASPI32.SYS = 4.71.2
WOWPOST.EXE = 4.6(1021)
WINASPI.DLL = 4.6(1021)
WNASPI32.DLL = 4.71.2
Does this look right?

Bet you’re going to tell me to try upgrading to Microstudio V2.609. Why don’t I get emails notifying me of these free upgrades? I never find out about them until something goes screwy and I have to return to your site for help.
