EAC not detecting drives

[skeeder]

thats what I get. woohoo. It will detect my emulated drives. so I disabled those, and now it doesn't detect any. Whats wrong?

my drives are a samsung 16X DVD-ROM
and a NEC 8X burner.

What's your operating system and user account? I had a similar problem when I was using a normal user account under Windows 2k and had to log in as admin or make a special shortcut "run as admin".

I'm using Windows XP Pro, SP1
and I'm admin.

I had the same problem a while back. Windows XP, SP2, admin priviledges etc.

I googled and googled and googled, but in the end just went for a clean re-install -- which solved the problem.

Huge pain in the rear. I'm sure there is a fix out there somewhere, but just telling you what worked for me....

Try using the adaptec aspi driver and/or the nero aspi driver, both can be found through google-age! To get the nero driver to work just put the file in the EAC folder, the aspi driver I like better; for that one it will self install.
