akai samples on win xp

I've just installed my pulsar on winxp, and almost everything works fine. the only thing that doesn't is that i can't read any of my samples. pulsar doesn't recognize them for some odd reason. can anyone has any idea about that?

You could have found the answer through a search of the forum. GlynH solved it.

Thanks for the reply guys.

Astroman: I tried both Plextor drives - the Akai CD-ROM could not be seen. The Pioneer DVD drive would not even recognise the Akai formatted CD-ROM as the light on the drive just kept flashing continually.

Herr Voigt: Glad you got your problem sorted by using the Adaptec ASPI layer - it didn't work here but...

After trawling through hundreds of posts here I saw reference to a different revision of Akai.dll from Creamware.

I downloaded and installed this but no change - until after a reboot and now I can see the Akai CD-ROM!

Why do Creamware not only not mention this file anywhere?

Worse still why is it virtually hidden on their website?

I had the same problem looking for the updated 2K/XP WDM driver...

For any more poor, unfortunate souls who have the same problem here are the links to the files;
