| Why do I get a wnaspi32.dll error message when launching the software? |
| Solution: |
| If you are getting ASPI errors with your Adaptec CD-R software: First, make sure that you have only one copy of the ASPI files on your system, and that they are in the right place: 1. Open Windows Explorer. 2. Select Tools | Find | Files or Folders. Search your entire system for the following 4 files: Windows 95/98 winaspi.dll.............windows\system wnaspi32.dll............windows\system aspienum.vxd............windows\system apix.vxd................windows\system\iosubsys Windows NT winaspi.dll.............windows\system wnaspi32.dll............windows\system32 aspi32.sys..............windows\system32\drivers wowpost.exe.............windows\system 3. If there are extras, rename them. 4. Reboot the system, run the program. If the ASPI error continues: Check the file versions and sizes by pulling up the properties of each file. All 4 must have the same version, and none can be 0 bytes. If any are different versions or 0 bytes: Rename and delete all the files on the system. Do not reboot. On the CD Creator CD go to Disk 1. Execute the aspiinst.exe file. to re-install the ASPI layer. Reboot the system, run aspi32.exe to update. |

44-2: I get a Fatal Exception error when trying to read DVD-Rom Media (Article Number 000823-0002)
I get a Fatal Exception error when trying to read DVD-ROM media. (Article Number 000823-0002)
| Description: |
| A Fatal Exception error is generated when trying to read DVD-ROM media.
How can I resolve this? A "Fatal Exception..." error is generated when trying to read DVD-ROM media in a system which currently has or previously has had Adaptec CD Recording software installed. The error does manifest with CD-ROM media. How can I resolve this ? This information applies to the following Adaptec product(s): - Easy CD Creator 4.x Suite This information applies to the following Operating System (S) - Windows 98 and 98 SE |
| Solution: |
Versions of Easy CD Creator previous to 4.02 use a driver that may interfere with the reading of DVD-ROM media which uses UDF (Universal Disc Format). This driver may be left behind even after uninstalling the software. Therefore if you do not currently have the software installed it may be worthwhile to ensure that the driver does not reside in the system. Easy CD Creator versions 4.02 and above no longer use this file and it can be safely removed. Search your hard drive for a file named CDR4VSD.VXD. It is normally located in the \WINDOWS\SYSTEM\IOSUBSYS directory. Rename the file to a different extension (e.g. CDR4VSD.OLD). Try accessing the DVD-ROM discs, which you previously had problems reading. Please note that if you are using a version of Easy CD Creator earlier than 4.02, renaming this driver will disable the Adaptec program. To update to the latest version of Easy CD Creator, which does not use this driver, please consult the following web page: http://www.adaptec.com/support/advisor/cdrupdates/ecdcversions.html |

44-3: Why doesn`t Easy CD Creator detect my MP3`s as valid audio files? (Article # 000822-0001)
Why doesn’t Easy CD Creator detect my MP3s as valid audio files ? (Article Number 000822-0001)
| Description: |
Easy CD Creator fails to recognize my MP3 files as being valid audio files. When opening an Audio CD Layout in Easy CD Creator and browsing to a directly that contains MP3 files, the program reports: “There are no audio files in this folder.” Also, if you try to drag an MP3 file into an Audio Layout, a warning message may be displayed indicating : “The MyFile.MP3 has an unrecognized file extension. Valid extensions are .WAV and .MP3. Please select a files with a .WAV or .MP3 file extension.” This information applies to the following product(s): - Easy CD Creator Deluxe 4.x Suite This information applies to the following Operating System(s): -Windows 95 -Windows 98 -Windows NT 4 -Windows 2000 |
| Solution: |
In Windows 95/98/NT 4, go to Start->Control Panel ->Multimedia->Devices and expand the Audio Compression Codecs. In Windows 2000, go to Start->Control Panel ->Sound & Multimedia->Hardware, double-click on the Audio Codecs entry and then click on the Properties tab. In either of the operating systems, look for an entry for Fraunhofer IIS MPEG Layer-3 Codec. If the entry is missing, skip to the next paragraph. Otherwise, double-click on the entry and then choose the About button – ensure that you are using version 1.9 or later. If the Fraunhofer entry is an earlier version than 1.9, then remove it. Search for any files on your drive that match L3*.ACM and rename them to a different extension, such as .OLD, then reinstall your copy of Easy CD Creator. Your MP3 files should be recognized properly after the reinstall. |

44-4: Can`t read data CD created in CD Copier with HP 7200 / Philips 3610 (Article 000106-0001)
Can't read data CD created in CD Copier with HP 7200/Philips 3610 (Article Number000106-0001)
| Description: |
| Easy CD Creator 4.0 has a DAO (Disc-at-Once) feature in Easy CD Copier. If this is
enabled with an HP 7200 drive (and possibly a Philips 3610 drive) the drive may not write
the TOC in the correct place which will make the CD unreadable by standard CD drives. This
may also apply to Easy CD Creator Data CD Layout. This information applies to the following product(s): - Easy CD Creator Deluxe Suite 4.0, CD Copier Deluxe This information applies to the following Operating System(s): - Windows 95 - Windows 98 - Windows NT 4.x |
| Solution: |
| If CD Copier is set in TAO (Track At Once) mode when writing a data CD, it will
correctly place the TOC (Table of Contents) on the disc - AFTER the data track. If CD Copier is set in DAO (Disc At Once) mode when writing a data CD, it will write the TOC in the wrong place -BEFORE the data track. This will cause the CD recordable disc to be unreadable and / or appear as an audio CD. When creating Data CD's with Easy CD Copier, make sure that you are writing in TAO mode - NOT in DAO mode. |

If the CD-ROM drive is SCSI, then please see the following article to make sure it's set
up properly: How do I set up my SCSI card and devices properly for CD recording? You may also have a dirty or damaged source CD. Try cleaning the source CD.

Also, see the following article that specifies which types of CDs Easy CD Creator can copy: Why won't the audio CD I created play on my home or car CD player? |

44-10: I am getting an "Audio Source 413", how do I resolve it? (Article 001108-0001)
I am getting an "Audio Source 4XX error" or "Audio Source 4XXX
error" when I try to burn MP3s.
This information applies to the following product(s):
- Easy CD Creator Deluxe Suite 4.x
This information applies to the following Operating System(s):
- Windows 95
- Windows 98
- Windows NT 4
- Windows 2000
- Windows ME
Solution:
Mp3 files currently do not have a Industry Standard that they must adhere too,
as wave files do. Depending on the software and format used to encode the mp3 files, they
may have different specifications. Because of this, Creator may not be compatible with all
types of mp3 files. If you find a 3rd party mp3 decoder and convert these files to wav,
you should be able to burn them without these errors.
Other things you might try are:
1. Recreate the MP3 file using an MP3 encoder, making sure the MP3 file is 96 bits or
higher (encoder now supplied with Roxio Software version 5 or higher)
2. Download the MP3 from the source again
