Has anyone had EAC consistently fail to detect audio CD's? Every other program on my PC ( windows, wmp, winamp 3 ) can detect audio CD's. I even installed AudioGrabber again to check and sure enough that works. EAC will always say no audio CD in drive. I have a Sony DVD-ROM DDU1621 and a Sony CD-RW CRX175A1 and this is happening to both drives. I followed the setup from The Coaster and I cannot see anything visibly wrong with the setup, etc.

Any ideas? If you require more information about my system setup please let me know. I had EAC working before but I recently upgraded to a new motherboard and processor ( ASUS P5T533-C and Intel P4 2.53 GHz ) but I can't see a new mobo cause EAC to fail detection.

Intel Application Accelerator.

Removed it, EAC detect's again fine. Well this will be a good FYI for anyone else having this problem or thinking about using IAA.

I think you can also install external ASPI interface to fix the problem. I did it in that way.

I had the same problem on my laptop. Loaded the ASPI drivers and all is well...

Pardon my ignorace, but how do you do that?

This actually happened to me for the first time ever (been using EAC for ages) just this past week.

On the EAC forum, the best fix for this is to copy the "WNASPI32.DLL" file from a Nero install into the root of the EAC directory. Fixes it right up.

Thank you all, using Nero's aspi worked like a charm, and my extraction speed is ALOT faster as well
