- Please help - Exact Audio Copy can't detect my CD drives
- Posted by Lee on April 14th, 2005
I've been using Exact Audio Copy (Version 0.95) exclusively for ripping
CD's to the hard-drive of my PC for a couple years or so now without
any significant problems - until yesterday. Yesterday I began ripping
a CD-R to my PC's hard-drive as usual, then left it unattended for a
few minutes. Upon returning, I discovered that it had reached a
certain point beyond which no more progress was being made. Having no
idea what was wrong, I cancelled the unsuccessful operation. Right
after that, I discovered that Exact Audio Copy wasn't detecting either
of the CD drives on my PC at all. So I went to the configuration
wizard, and tried re-configuring Exact Audio Copy on my PC, but
discovered that it still wasn't detecting any CD drive(s) on my PC. So
now I have no idea what to do. Any efforts to help me with this
problem will be greatly appreciated - thanks.

Under EAC options, look at the Interface tab and try Native32. I don't
know why it would have changed but maybe windows hiccupped. I had to
jiggle this once.

Yes - that turned out to be it, exactly. Wasn't expecting it to be so
simple. Thanks very much.
