Troubles with ASPI & Pioneer DVD 103s

This is a discussion about Troubles with ASPI & Pioneer DVD 103s in the Windows Hardware category; Has anyone had any success getting ASPI to work with this drive? I've tried LOTS of ASPI layers - Adaptec, Symbios, Pokiosoft (sp?) - none of them work. More specifically, they can't see the drive, and Pokiosoft's ASPI quits with: ASPI Initialisation failed.

More specifically, they can't "see" the drive, and Pokiosoft's ASPI quits with:
"ASPI Initialisation failed.
Error code: F0000006h"
 
Also, "Enable digital audio for this CD-ROM device" under device manager doesn't work - the drive just skips through the tracks when trying to play an Audio CD.
 
I'm using a Pioneer 103s DVD drive on a BP6 motherboard with two celeron 400s. I'm running RC2 (although the same problem occured in build #2114).
The drive is hooked up to the secondary IDE channel and is the master (and only) drive on that channel.
 
I have not been able to find a cause for these problems (which DID NOT occur in Beta 3 on the same machine), so I thought I'd ask for some suggestions.

I got a 103s and it works with the aspi-layer from adaptec. If you have adaptec cd creator try to install the aspi-layer by running aspiinst -force from disk 1.

can you do me a big favor and copy the aspi layer and make a zip file of it for me. I dont have either that adaptec software or an adaptec card but i have heard that the adaptec aspi also works with nero..

OP
It turns out that the problems I'm suffering were caused by the HighPoint ATA/66 drivers not responding to ASPI requests properly.
So I guess it's broken until HighPoint write better drivers....
