Hi, Afew years ago my sister had a similar problem with her work system, windows 2000 with a cd burner. She had to tweak the registry for the burner to work. Now here is the thing, my sister is on holidays, and I cant remember for the life of me the tweak. Try doing a search in google or dog pile for the drive model with windows 2000 problem or similar tacked on the end, I am sure you will find some info on your problem..

Subject: Re: Ok, I have had it! Casey, Thank you for telling me how to find out what the drive is. It is; SONY CD RW CRX 220E1 I have tried two different disks made from Office Depot and two made by Memorex. This stupid software does worn that if there any third party recording applications on the system that it may not work properly. It only wants certain drivers in the win 32 file. I looked and there no other "aspi" files in this folder. So I am stumped. I did have sonic stage for my mini disk installed and I have already deleted the programs that came with that. Should I just dump this program and get a new one? Is this drive too old to work with the newer programs? Thanks again for the reply.
