PC (with Windows 2000 installed), using SCSI.
I have an (I-Will SIDE-2930C Fast SCSI Adapter)
SCSI card installed.
When i turn on the Sampler the PC recognises it
as a new device (AKAI EMI S2000 SCSI processor
device) and asks for the drivers.
Do you need drivers for the sampler?
If so where can i get them?
I would much appreciate any help you can give me.
Cheers

i gotta reinstall mesa soon (i'll do it this week) so maybe i'll have some trials to shed some light on your situation. i don't use my sampler a lot on some formattings (i go through them..) i have my troubles getting my scsi csrd to show up. yours is sterling? it's checked in the bios (or whatever that thing is where you hold down the keys when you boot..) all i remember is that i could never get it to work if i turned the pc on first.

Keep us posted on how yours goes.
I have tried a new SCSI card (Adaptec 2904),
but it does the same thing again. I am running
Win2k and have a RAID hard drive set up. Not sure if that is causing the problems?

mesa = no windows 2000.
everything i've got runs on 98. i'm sticking with it.

I have spoken to the Akai Tech Support guy, who was very helpful. So anyone with similar problems running MESA or Recycle on Win2k and trying to connect to a SCSI sampler......DO THIS........The aspi drivers that are need by MESA which comes with win95/98 are missing in win2000. Try the Adaptec or Microsoft web site for the aspi drivers. You need these drivers: Winaspi.dll and Wnaspi32.dll . I have attached a ASPI check application which will tell you what ASPI drivers you are running and which ones you need. Good luck. Now i can get on and do some tunes....at last!.........
