Adaptec Direct CD will not work, NT 4.0

Did some checking.

NT identifies all drives as SCSI devices.
When NT was written, it was assumed that SCSI drives would be used in business computers, and IDE drives in home computers.

Have you installed the NT version of the IDE Buss driversfro your motherboard?

What about updates from Roxio?

Roxio has a number of items to check in the Knowledge base. However, the Microsoft links are all bad. The links I thought would help the most are not available at MS.

It is possible that your recorder is not fully supported by the older version of Direct CD, and a Windows 98 driver or update is what is allowing it to function in the W98 session.

The last version of Easy CD Creator 3 is 3.5
Direct CD for Easy CD Creator 4 is at version 3.05

According to the information I have you must have version 4.0 or newer to run under NT, XP, or Windows 2000.

Thanks for your effort. I have the latest MB drivers and the latest updates for
this version of Easy CD Creator, Direct CD and Take Two. ASPI32 and CDRPWD will not
load and are apparently necessary for the application to work. I cannot find any reference to this problem on the Roxio web site or Microsoft web site. Don’t really know what else to do.

I have also loaded the latest ASPI32 drivers from Adaptec. I get this error message "Could not start the CDUDF SERVICE ON \\ATHLON. Error 1068: The dependency service or group failed to start." and this is what I get in the event viewer "The following boot-start or system-start driver(s) failed to load:Cdudf"
