Win-ASPI File Missing.
2 months later
I am facing the same problem. I have tried almost everything and my CD-Rw and ROM drives still not working under a Windows 98. I think the problem began after i installed Internet Explorer 6.0 or the Windows Media Player 7. The curious think is that the drivers are recognized by the BIOS. I can't access the drivers specfication in the control panel druing normal windows sessions. But I can access it on the safe mode! Please help me! This is anoying me!!!
Did you get this problem resolved? My computer is saying the same thing and I can't seem to find a solution.
OK, if you computer is not seeing CD ROMs at all (will not read from them or show them in My Computer) then you could have a virus (in system proerties on the performance screen the computer will talk about MS-DOS Compatibility mode...go to www.symantec.com/avcenter and run their online virus check to be sure it's a virus), you might need to update the driver for the IDE controller (VIA is bad about this..if it is a via chipset download the upgrade from their web sit...4 in 1 driver), or you could have put a CD-ROM on the secondary IDE controller as slave without anything as master and have gotten a blue screen that says you can't mix 16 bit and 32 bit drivers on the same controller (set the CD as master, delete "noide=1" from the registry using REGEDIT).

I have a cendyne 24x10x40 cdr/rw burner made by ace. I kept getting the missing win-aspi file error message you discribe. I called cendyne support and got a patch that works with my burner. I will be happy to e-mail it to you if think it will help.

Hi there,

Thanks many times,

I went to the site you mentioned but was unsure what to download.
I downloaded the most up to date version of Nero but this did not solve my the '?.?' problem. I could not see any downloads specific to this problem.
Could you point me in the right direction??
Thanks

Ok my CD-RW worked just fine until my dad had the computer taken in to be "fixed" and "upgraded." Well we did get a new processor but the guy uninstalled everything including the drivers.
Now I thought you couldn't uninstall CD-rom drivers because they came with Windows or whatever, however when I went to burn something it gave me the same message!! My Cd-Rom works normally so I assume he didnt ininstall drivers, but I get the "error 16" and "win-aspi ?.? missing" problems!
Also, when I use disc juggler it says the same thing!
Please help me I don't know much about computers.....

when we load Nero a message : could not open driver. Trying system ASPI (OK)
the WIN-ASPI'?.?' file could not be found therefore you can currently select only image recorders.
The windows is part of the windows 95/98/ME files. please fix this problem and then restart nero (error 15: mismatched components)
I cant find the file. Ive reloaded windows 98SE but it doesn't help
Please help
i have the same problem with error 12: init failed text. i have tried these drivers and stuff but nothing seems to help. my f drive (which used to be for the cds) has disappeared. can somebody help me?
I found this problem last night at 10:30pm, I fixed it this morning at 08:15am it's not difficult people.
The wnaspi32.dll seems to be for WIN2K and XP so for WIN98 and ME I recommend downloading NeroAspiEn.exe from the Nero ftp site "ftp.nero.com" try either or both of these and it should fix "error 15" and "error 16" problems.
