Also, the disks produced have errors reported in them as checked by
Plextools 1.10c. And yes, the SCSI chain is correctly terminated.. The set up works FINE in windows Me.
 
Anybody any ideas ? apart from the bundled Roxio software in XP just not liking SCSI burners ?

I have an Adaptec 2930c with a Imation 8x20 which worked just fine till I loaded Nero. I burned 1 disk fine now XP doesn't see the Writer as a writer just a CDrom.
 
I uninstalled the software restored from earlier date nothing has worked so far. You event log error is excatly what mine is.
 
Nero must have added something in the system files but I don't know what it is.
 
I uninstalled the Writer and the SCSI card no dice. Man this sucks.

Nope my CD Writer is nothing but a CD Rom now Event log only error and it has been reported. I bet I will have to reformat and reinstall to get writing back.

Thanks for the help but I have done that several times now. I build computers for myself and friends and am a Network Admin.
 
Nero added something in the driver directory and I'm going to find it or end up starting over which really isn't that big a deal. Just was kind of hoping that someone might have already found out what the problem was thanks again.

Have you downloaded the latest winaspi32.dll from Ahead's site, and put it in your NERO folder?

You need the winaspi32.dll from NERO's site, not Adaptec's.
 
I would reinstall Nero, and place the said dll in the NERO folder.
 
P.S. Thanks Alec
