October 21, 200322 yr During my unattended installation of NTI CD-Maker I noticed it would stop installing ASPI drivers and then move on to the next app. When I open the program an error message pops up saying "No Supported Drives Detected".Now, of course, I can't use it because it won't see the drives and hence the discs.(I really like this program because it's the only one I know that reads multi-session discs)You think it has to do with my registry settings?;Changes Windows Driver Signing Policy 'Prompt' to 'Ignore'[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Driver Signing]"Policy"=hex:00;Remove & Disable Shared Documents from My Computer[-HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\MyComputer\NameSpace\DelegateFolders\{59031a47-3f72-44a7-89c5-5595fe6b30ee}][HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer]"NoSharedDocuments"=dword:00000001;This will add "Services" to the right-click menu of "My Computer" [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{20D04FE0-3AEA-1069-A2D8-08002B30309D}\shell\services] @=hex(2):53,00,65,00,72,00,76,00,69,00,63,00,65,00,73,00,00,00 "SuppressionPolicy"=dword:4000003c [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{20D04FE0-3AEA-1069-A2D8-08002B30309D}\shell\services\command] @=hex(2):25,00,77,00,69,00,6e,00,64,00,69,00,72,00,25,00,5c,00,73,00,79,00,73, 00,74,00,65,00,6d,00,33,00,32,00,5c,00,6d,00,6d,00,63,00,2e,00,65,00,78,00, 65,00,20,00,2f,00,73,00,20,00,25,00,53,00,79,00,73,00,74,00,65,00,6d,00,52, 00,6f,00,6f,00,74,00,25,00,5c,00,73,00,79,00,73,00,74,00,65,00,6d,00,33,00, 32,00,5c,00,73,00,65,00,72,00,76,00,69,00,63,00,65,00,73,00,2e,00,6d,00,73, 00,63,00,20,00,2f,00,73,00,00,00;This adds the "Open Command Window Here" on the right-click menu for folders[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\shell\cmd]@="Open Command Window Here"[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\shell\cmd\command]@="cmd.exe /k \"cd %L\"";Disable the Desktop Cleanup Wizard[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Desktop\CleanupWiz]"NoRun"=dword:00000001;Disables Error Reporting, but notifies when errors occur[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\PCHealth\ErrorReporting]"DoReport"=dword:00000000;Disable Messenger Service (to block spam.

October 21, 200322 yr Nero has it's own ASPI driver.Install just ASPI 4.6 (imho 4.7 is a little bit buggy)Use "aspinit.exe silent" for an unattended installation.
October 22, 200322 yr Author Well I was unable to find v4.6 but I got v4.7 and installed it but I'm still getting the same error. Ugh.The thing is, NTI CD-Maker automatically installs it's ASPI drivers after the software installation but something is preventing it from doing so. And for the life of me I can't understand why. What could cause it?(I'm really frustrated because I need this app.)
October 24, 200322 yr I don't use NTI, but I do install the Adaptec ASPI 4.71.2 drivers. What I did was look at their install batch and "borrowed" the commands they used with some modifications ECHO Installing Adaptec ASPI 4.71.2...CALL %systemdrive%\Updates\aspi\REG_XP.EXECOPY %systemdrive%\Updates\aspi\ASPIXP.SYS %WINDIR%\SYSTEM32\DRIVERS\ASPI32.SYS /YCOPY %systemdrive%\Updates\aspi\WNASPIXP.DLL %WINDIR%\SYSTEM32\WNASPI32.DLL /YThis is the EXACT same function "install.bat xp32" does.
