i have some bin/cue games that i want to make self booting, with win 98 this wasnt a problem, but i upgraded to win 2k and now whenever i try to do anything with cdrecord (even -scanbus) it just says 'access violation, core dump to cdrecord.exe.core' anyone know wtf is up w/this? or.. is there a way to do it with fireburner? i can still use that, please post detailed instructions if so. thanks

thanks for the reply but i should have been more specific in my post, im looking for something to work with CDDA bin/cue games. theres a util that will convert non-cdda bins to a disc juggler file but i have nothing for my games with cd tracks. anyone have suggetions?

Well don't worry about your oversight. I'm a moron! I just told you to rip a BIN into files and create an ISO then convert it using BIN2BOOT...

What's wrong with that, and why am I calling myself a moron? Well my brain-fart consists of the fact that --- I believe BIN2BOOT will convert a BIN (with or without CDDA audio tracks) to a .CDI. You just make sure you point BIN2BOOT to the .CUE file (I think) and it will add the CDDA files and everything...

Geez! Sorry for the brain-fart!

just to answer this question for cdrecord and win2k. the reason you're getting that error message is because you probably don't have an ASPI driver installed in your win2k system.

to save you the trouble of searching for an ASPI installer just download ForceASPI(http://www.audiotools.co.uk/downloads/frcasp17.zip)

unzip it and run the batch file INSTASPI.BAT. that should take care of the problems you're having with cdrecord.

later.
