windows setup complains of an error (in setuperr.log is says two instances of "Upgrade Pack")

and the start reg key needs to be 1 not 2 as it is set, the ASPI driver needs to run automatic or apps dont see the drives, testing on windows server 2003.

i might add, that after changing the reg key start 1 one it worked great. no idea about the upgrade pack message.

Hi,
Thank you for the ASPI update addon.
Please recheck your waspi.inf, specially this section:
[ASPI.Shortcut]
Name =ASPI Check
CmdLine =11,,aspichk.exe
SubDir =%PRGF%
WorkingDir =11
InfoTip =Check the aspi

[Strings]
PRGF ="..\Programs"
I did not receive any errors during my install, but could not see the shortcut in Startmenu\Programs. With your permission, I change your INF file as follow:
[Version]
Signature=$Windows NT$

[Optional Components]
ASPIAddonPack

[ASPI]
OptionDesc ="ASPI"
Tip ="ASPI"
Modes =0,1,2,3
AddReg =ASPI.AddReg

[ASPI.AddReg]
HKLM,"SYSTEM\ControlSet001\Services\Aspi32","ErrorControl",0x10001,1
HKLM,"SYSTEM\ControlSet001\Services\Aspi32","Type",0x10001,1
HKLM,"SYSTEM\ControlSet001\Services\Aspi32","Start",0x10001,2
HKLM,"SYSTEM\ControlSet001\Services\Aspi32","MatchFlags",0x10001,ff,ff,ff,ff
HKLM,"SYSTEM\ControlSet001\Services\Aspi32\Parameters","ExcludeMiniports",,""
HKLM,"SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Aspi32","ErrorControl",0x10001,1
HKLM,"SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Aspi32","Type",0x10001,1
HKLM,"SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Aspi32","Start",0x10001,2
HKLM,"SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Aspi32","MatchFlags",0x10001,ff,ff,ff,ff
HKLM,"SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Aspi32\Parameters","ExcludeMiniports",,""
HKLM,"SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Aspi32\Enum","0",,"Root\LEGACY_ASPI32\0000"
HKLM,"SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Aspi32\Enum","Count",0x10001,1
HKLM,"SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Aspi32\Enum","NextInstance",0x10001,1
I only removed the [ASPI.Shortcut] and [Strings] sections.
Thanks,
Armond.

i know about the shortcut problem ....didnt matter what i did that shortcut doesnt get created.....

Kelsenellenelvian · Post by **Kelsenellenelvian** » Wed Mar 22, 2006 7:29 am

This code here fixes it and creates the shortcut in the Start -> Programs area:

[ASPI.Shortcut]
Name =ASPI Check
CmdLine =11,,aspichk.exe
SUbDir =
WorkingDir =11
InfoTip =Check the aspi

Also with this delete the strings section.

Not trying to step on your toes booogy but I thought I would try to help.

change both instances of "Start",0x10001,2 to "Start",0x10001,1 and it will start the aspi32 service on boot, as some programs don't start the service as its set to manual, and there for don't see any drives (also google "aspi fix" as its just the same thing, setting the service to Automatic/Boot) its needed to start under XP/2003

boooggy · Post by **boooggy** » Wed Mar 22, 2006 8:44 am

fixed and uploaded

Lemonzest · Post by **Lemonzest** » Wed Mar 22, 2006 8:58 am

thanks, i'll try this next install

boooggy · Post by **boooggy** » Wed Mar 22, 2006 9:05 am

please let me know about the shortcut

Lemonzest · Post by **Lemonzest** » Wed Mar 22, 2006 9:35 am

for anyone testing you can use this

http://www.grc.com/tip/id.htm

it lists all ASPI devices it can find, so should tell you if the aspi32 service is starting ok

booogy, just did an install yesterday (hence the bug report) but not planing a new one for a few weeks.

armond · Post by **armond** » Wed Mar 22, 2006 11:20 am

You uploaded a new file? I downloaded the file and it's still the old one. Its waspi.inf modified on Saturday, February 25, 2006, 5:11:10 PM. Where is the new addon?

keytotime · Post by **keytotime** » Wed Mar 22, 2006 12:16 pm

No shortcut here.

boooggy · Post by **boooggy** » Wed Mar 22, 2006 2:20 pm

armond, try redownload....i did it and its the new file.

keytotime · Post by **keytotime** » Wed Mar 22, 2006 5:18 pm

Change the top of the .inf to:

Code: Select all

[Version]
signature="$CHICAGO$"

[DefaultInstall]
OptionDesc = "ASPI"
Tip		   = "ASPI"
Modes	   = 0,1,2,3
AddReg	     =ASPI.AddReg
ProfileItems =ASPI.Shortcut

[Optional Components]
ASPI

[ASPI]
OptionDesc = "ASPI"
Tip		   = "ASPI"
Modes	   = 0,1,2,3
AddReg	     =ASPI.AddReg
ProfileItems =ASPI.Shortcut

Then it works fine.

thank you, keytotime....

updated in the first post.

Lemonzest · Post by **Lemonzest** » Sat Apr 15, 2006 4:27 pm

i used this addon with my new install (2003 Ent), and ASPI was not recognised untill i did my reg patch and rebooted.

TechnoHunter · Post by **TechnoHunter** » Sat Apr 15, 2006 5:37 pm

reg patch?

details please

Lemonzest · Post by **Lemonzest** » Sat Apr 15, 2006 6:38 pm

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Aspi32]
"ErrorControl"=dword:00000001
"Type"=dword:00000001
"Start"=dword:00000001

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Aspi32\Parameters]
"ExcludeMiniports"=""

thats the reg patch i had to use to make the aspi32 service start on boot, some programs need it that was, btw i found this by googling "Fix Aspi"

TechnoHunter · Post by **TechnoHunter** » Sat Apr 15, 2006 8:47 pm

-blink- hmmm not sure why (maybe since i used the installer) but those entries already live in my registry..

oddness

Hello,
I'm not sure where I went wrong.. but I keep getting error in event viewer.
I've tried reinstalling fresh XP several times. Maybe I'm just doing something wrong

I get this error once, every bootup.
Is there a way around this?
Thanks.

The following boot-start or system-start driver(s) failed to load:
Aspi32

smor · Post by **smor** » Sat Jun 10, 2006 8:09 pm

I'm having the same problem, too.

Anyone knows what's wrong ?

When I try to grab audio cd's with audio catalyst, it shows me only analog mode available, as if ASPI is not installed

boooggy · Post by **boooggy** » Sat Nov 25, 2006 6:15 am

i know about this error
try now with 11/25/2006 release
i think is fixed.

Sereby · Post by **Sereby** » Sat Nov 25, 2006 6:31 am

i had that error report with my updatepack too.. the only resolution was to change back to 4.6 4.7 is to buggy

boooggy · Post by **boooggy** » Sat Nov 25, 2006 7:50 am
