Re: Help with EAC...

question: which version of EAC did you have and are trying to reinstall?

i'm still using 0.9 pb 11, and i know it's an older version, but it's rock solid. maybe this version would work.

also, which OS are you using?

Re: Help with EAC...

I run windows XP. I can't understand how the program would disapear from the hard drive and why won't the new EAC read the disc when all the other prgams do?

Re: Help with EAC...

it's very curious indeed.

i know you said EAC disappeared, but before you reinstalled it, you did make sure all the registry entries of EAC were removed, right?

if not, i'd suggest getting RegCleaner - it's FREE - or a similar program, and making sure all EAC registry entries are gone. then, reboot and try to reinstall again... with either or both a newer EAC version and the old 0.9 pb 11.


a dumb question, but... when you double-click on My Computer, you can see your CD drive listed, correct?

Re: Help with EAC...

I used RegCleaner and reinstalled EAC, still no go. When I click on my computer the icon for drive F is a picture of a disc, not a cd player with a disk poping out and is named MMC/SD, I think this may be the problem. The other program (Itunes, windows media player) reconize the cd in the player and will play it.
Thanks for helping h_vargas

Re: Help with EAC...

The problem is (sometime) caused by ASPI driver. Check: EAC options -> Interface. If you have "Native Win32" it may not work correctly. Better use Adaptec or Nero driver.

Re: Help with EAC...

or, install an ASPI layer. as dumb as it sounds, i do this almost every time when installing WinXP on a machine. i know many/most burning programs will work fine without the ASPI layer, but i install it anyway... on the one or two occasions where i didn't install an ASPI layer, i got a dreaded problem of the CD/DVD drive "disappearing" completely and had to get a reg fix. (i'm not saying the disappearing drive is due to not having an ASPI layer, but it is odd how this only happened to me on the one or two times when i didn't spend the extra 45 seconds to install an ASPI layer.) not the end of the world, but a pain.

glad you got it sorted out, Tahoetoeknee. wish i could have been more help. but the important thing is you ironed out the issue. good job.
