Adaptec ASPI Drivers In Win2000
Just spotted this @ NTcompatible.com:
Upgraded to Adaptec ASPI 4.70. Ran ASPIchk and it showed everything was installed and functioning properly; however, ripping program kept defaulting back to WinNT native calls and rips of audio were riddled with popping and cracking. Then upgraded to ASPI 4.71.2 and the same thing happened. Found a batch install program called ForceASPI (v1.7) at Radified under heading "Force ASPI" which installs 4.60 (build 1021) automatically and painlessly. Now everything runs beautifully - no more crappy audio rips.

ATI Catalyst 3.2 Driver Report
Brandon Bell over at the Firingsquad has posted his Catalyst 3.2 driver report. Here's a snip.
So when ATI announced the RADEON 9800, 9600, and 9200 family of graphics processors earlier this month, we half expected that the CATALYST team was hard at work on those products, then we got the surprising news of CATALYST 3.2, just a week after ATI?s Game Developer?s Conference launch event in San Jose. Could they have developed a new top to bottom driver solution that quickly?
