goto www.adaptec.com and install the UDFReader drivers, and any other stuff. ASPI (Advanced SCSI Programming Interface) is used to make reading removeable media (not always scsi hardware) easy to use in programs. Powerdvd can't find it. Either copy and expand it from win2000 CD, or download scsi drivers from adaptec (if your drive is SCSI). Most likley its gone missing
Check powerdvd is using the correct drive, and its being registered properly and DMA is on/off (on via boards when its unchecked its on! and vice-versa), thats device manager/dvd to find DMA.

I had the same problem. Never found out why I didn't have that file though. I just copied it from the DVD-ripper called Decc. (I think it is spelled like that)

You have the same DVD that I have (except mine is 114). They did do a firmware update a few months back. I was verion 1.02 before I went 2.03 (I didn't know about the updates till Diablo II cameout, because it couldn't read the CD). The firmware update can be found at http://www.pioneerusa.com/tec.html#drivers When you try to update your firmware, remember that it will take more than one minute and don't go crazy if it looks like it froze. I thought the samething and was about to press reset when common sense kicked in I am also using PowerDVD 2.55 that came with Hercules Prophet II 64MB (It came with 2.5 and I updated to 2.55). After you update your firmware uninstall PowerDVD( including the directory if the uninstall couldn't delete the directory). Also make sure DMA is enabled for your DVD drive (Device Manager IDE ATA/ATAPI controllers). IF this doesn't help, just keep replying here
