Laurie, This site: www.ncf.carleton.ca/~aa571/aspi.htm has the FTP & URL addresses for Adaptec.
The Radified web site < http://aspi.radified.com/> offers this bit of jargon: "The term 'ASPI' is an acronym that stands for: Advanced SCSI Programming Interface. All the following terms are synonymous: ASPI layer, ASPI drivers, ASPI interface." Radified also has links to the ForceASPI program you refer to and a fairly detailed guide to how all this stuff is supposed to work. Adaptec has an ASPI checker program, so you can see what's installed, if anything -- that's available from Radified as well. All this might not be necessary if MS learned to play well with others! <grin> Bernie LAURIE SOLOMON wrote: >Bernie, > >I was searching for the proper name for the Adaptec layer and could not >remember it; but you came up with it.
