in thread Win32::API arguments

Yes, I do have ASPI installed (as a matter of fact, the "other function" that worked is the one that checks if ASPI is installed).

His software is very, very simple, I'd doubt he used other interface to IDE drives. But I think the code is all there, so I'll check it out anyway.

Thanks again!

    OK... I broke my promise - couldn't do the tests last weekend. Sorry.

    Guys, I checked the delphi code, and apparently there's no different interface to the IDE drives, all is handled by DiscIdCalcDLL.dll. I also tried to remove that backslash, no success.

    As I said before, the function "AspiInstalled" works fine. It's returning 5, which is exactly the number of ASPI hosts reported by ASPICHK.exe (Adaptec's tool).

    Any other ideas? Maybe writing the code in C and using Inline?

    At this point, actually, I'm about to change focus. If you can show me some way of reading an audio CD's TOC (in Win32) I think I can get what I want.

    Thank you again,

    VMat

      If you can do it in C, then doing it in Inline::C sounds a good idea.

      Cheers,
