I have an NFORCE2 based motherboard and recently
upgraded my system drivers using NVIDIA Unified Driver
Package 3.13. This driver package is the first one to
use Nvidia's own IDE drivers over windows default
drivers. I went to rip a cd's audio tracks and no drives
are found. System specs are:
Asus A7N8X Deluxe
Athlon XP2600
1 gig Corsair ram
Toshiba 16X dvd rom
MSI 48x16x48 CDRW
Windows XP Pro SP1 and all patches
I upgraded to version 0.24 hoping this might fix it, as I
had used ver 0.23 for quite some time successfully. I
am guessing that with the Nvidia IDE drivers, there is
some issue in recognizing the drives. Other programs
recognize the drives fine, and they are accessable under
Windows, just not in CD-DA X-tractor. Any help on this
issue would be greatly appreciated!

Try downloading and running a small utility I wrote for
Freedb. It will give a listing of all drives that it can find...
just be sure to have an audio CD in the drive when you run
it. It should be run from a command prompt... post the
results here.

I have a similar problem with my thinkpad. XTractor reports
the error "Unable to allocate default CD device" on startup.
No drives appear in the cd options drop-down.
IBM Thinkpad T30
Pentium 4 1800 MHz

OS: Win2K
I have a sneaking suspicion that RealPlayer may somehow be
involved, however, I have no specific proof as of yet.

I have the same problem. I too use a motherboard with an
NFORCE2 chipset and the newest Nvidia IDE drivers.

Everything on my machine was working fine last time I used
Xtractor. Now no CD's are being detected. The only thing I
can think of that might have caused it to go awry would be
the cleaning I did with PestPatrol. My aspi dll's are in place,
and I even tried some older versions of them to no avail.
Anyway I ran cddbigen (with a CD in each drive) and the
results are:

I have the same problem using a custom desktop. It is a
basic Intel motherboard, XP Pro, and an older Iomega CD-
ROM RD/W drive (heh, it was free).

I tried the util posted cddbidgen.exe and it found the drives
thru the spti interface, and the ioctl_cdrom interface.
The aspi interface found 0 Drives.
