If you have a CD writer, there is a reasonable chance that you have an ASPI (Advanced SCDI Programming Interface) driver, though hardly a guarantee of it. They seem to be quite problematic from the little I've read on them. They're required for Digital Audio extraction, both from CD's and DVD's, which leads me to think that if you can already successfully rip a DVD then you have ASPI drivers???

I've also read that the latest Adaptec ASPI drivers are buggy and unstable, and to use the 1.60 version instead. Nero also has ASPI drivers available for download.

The DVDtoX Support page mentions looking for a WNASPI32.DLL in your Windows system folder...
