[thebeamer]

can someone please help

i found this forum by chance but it was rated 10/10..

well here goes my friend installed windows me on his computer and then he could not find his cd writer..he has been posting on another forum but this problem has not been sorted .. the referce below is his words from the forum..

Hi All
I hope someone can help.....I've installed Windows ME and now i've got an error when i start any backup software ( Nero, CDRWin etc )...I get a message which states ASPI error or scsi host manager error...When i check everthing in systems all is OK but when i check it in the software i got with my scsi card is states error codes 10 and 22..A Code 10 means an error occurs when a device is not detected or not working properly. First, see if all the cable connections are okay, if adapter cards are fully inserted into their slots, and if ribbon cables or power cables are connected properly.
Error code 22 occurs when devices have been disabled. To enable the device, go to the Device Manager and double-click on its icon to bring up its Properties dialog box. On the page displayed, look for the Device Usage list box. The Device Usage box lets you configure your computer to run a different set of devices with different configurations. For most users, only one configuration is listed: Original Configuration (Current). To enable the device for this configuration (which is also the current one) click the checkbox beside it, click OK, and restart your computer.

I've checked all of this and still have no joy......Is it a ME problem ????? I know Windows NT doesn't support ASPI is the same for Win ME ???I've also tried Windows Support and found NOTHING


installed all the latest drivers. I have tried the latest drivers from the scsi card manufacture, Yamaha's latest drivers and the software from Adyansis ( Scsi Software )
even Nero's latest bits....Everything was working with Win 98... I have tried on other occasions to contact Gigabyte ( Motherboard Manufacture ) but they seem 2 B ignoring me ( Typical !!!! they take your money and hide )..What software did U try tonyfd1??When I checked the device with the software I got with the card, it states I have an error with my PCI steering?but in systems all is OK?I have also changed the settings but still I have the same problem?.Even if I change the settings in BIOS it still states I have Errors?.Code 10 and 22?.The writer I have is a Yam CRW4416S and the Scsi Card is a Side-2930C....


After playing around 4 hours I have now sorted Nero and CDRwin?ie: My drives R now listed??.But in my Superview software ( What I got with the scsi card ) it states ::::::

This device has a problem -

I?ve tried to change the setting in BIOS ie: Legacy ISA but Windows will then only start in Safe Mode??If I back any thing up I get an Error when I try 2 read the CD??

i found this link for him http://www.flexion.org/aspi/
but he said it didnt work


I've swapped the scsi card about and I have also played around with my bios.....I have managed 2 remove two conflicts but I'm left with one now.....if I change the settings in bios on the IRQ I have an error on , When ME starts up it will only start in Safe Mode. I've loaded all the latest drivers...and still I have a BLO**Y error.....Jiff U say I can force the hardware....Can U give me a little more info and what that should achieve.....I can remove Superview but will ME manage my scsi card ?????
If back anything up I get errors when I read the CD afterwards.....


I?ve made the changes in my BIOS and now I have the following errors ????

?Does this make any sense 2 U????????.Do U have any ideas ????????????????
If I change IRQ 9 and 11 to not PnP it clears the errors on them , but if I do the same on IRQ 10 Win ME will only start in safe mode until I change the setting again...

The SCSI card isn?t sharing anything ??..The only thing I?ve used on my HD is EZ which came with the HD?( Primitive form of Partition Magic )?I?ve got around 6.5 Gig left on the partition the CDR software is on?..

WHAT WOULD U DO ?????????? Win 98 or Keep Trying


im sorry for all that this words and i have cut out loads of stuff..

well the basic story is it worked ok with 98 but it wont work with win me.

i told him i think yamaha should stick to making motorbikes... he didnt take it very well

heres hoping

goto adaptecs website and look for a program called aspi32.exe.

i had the same problems on a friends machine (well abt as similar as itcan get) itll fix it i hope.

 

[rockhard]

I too had same prob and i solved it just by going to Adaptec's web site and downloading the latest drivers for my SCSI card.
My card is a 2902 PCI and is listed in device manager as a AIC-7850.
Armed with this info i just downloaded the latest driver package for the "78xx Series" cards and extracted them to a folder and just updated the driver through device manager - problem solved

For your info i have my SCSI card in the bottom PCI slot sharing IRQ with the AGP with "PnP OS" enabled in bios.

Hope u get it sorted,

rockhard =)

 

[thebeamer]

[thebeamer]

hello people

im back to report

this is what he is saying

I have made a few more changes in BIOS ie: PnP etc and it crashed again?.( Safe Mode )
I?ve got and installed all the latest drivers from Yamaha, Iwill, Adaptec, Nero and still no joy I?ve also got the latest version of firmware for my writer??
The reason I displayed the errors was 2 try and give U all as much info ?..Win 98 is beginning 2 look my best option?..Come all I?m sure U can help me?..we R nearly their??.I?ll buy U all a Big Belgium Bun?( Cake ) If we can do it??Even if I remove all my other cards I still have the same error??..theBeamer I?ve managed 2 get my Cdroms recognised in Nero and I now don?t have the error ASPI in CDRWin?..ASPI informs me all is OK ( All versions installed )?..

Please keep the ideas coming?.I?ve had no replies from Adaptec, Yamaha, Iwill, I have had a couple of replies from others but they R crap NOT interested in other words?..

CHEERS ALL
