48153 2002-05-10 22:03:00 I recently jumped on the bandwagon and installed Windows XP Pro on my system. So far I have no complaints except that when I play audio CD's they skip like a school girl during play time. I checked for Cd-Rom controllers in System manager and found none and could not install one either. I then discovered that the wnaspi32.dll file was not on my computer. I have since installed this file (downloaded it from adaptec.com) but still my Cd's skip and my Audio Catalyst program on rips CD's using the analog method which takes ages.
What else be wrong or does Win XP Pro have a built in security function that stops you from ripping CD's! please advise tas to this.

System config:
Celeron 1000Mhz
192MB Ram
52X CD-Rom
Win XP Pro

48155 2002-05-10 23:17:00 I too can rip with XP no problem at all.

I have had trouble with several 52x CDRom's though I have put in a 40x & now have no problems at all.

If you go into Device Manager you can enable digital audio for your CDRom although it should be enabled by default.

I also know of people who have had CDs shatter in a 52x Rom, especially if the CDs are of a cheaper variety, they just seem to go too fast.

Have you tried any other programs for your ripping?
Hope you get it sorted.

You can fix your CD player by going into the 'Sounds and Audio Devices' applet in the control panel, go to the 'Hardware' tab, double click your CDROM, click the 'Properties' tab, and untick 'Enable Digital CD Audio for this CD ROM device'.

The only reliable version of wnaspi32.dll for XP I have found is this one:
<ftp://ftp.nero.com/wnaspi32.dll>
place it in your Windows\System32 folder. I really like CDex for ripping audio, it's Freeware. I use 'LAME' to encode the resulting WAV files into MP3s using VBR encoding.
