Upgraded to 1.1.3 -- now can't find CD writer

I went to burn an SVCD today, and when I started up VCD Easy, I found that there was a new version available. So, dumb me, I went and upgraded. Then the fun began.

First, I got an access violation when starting VCD Easy. I did a little reading, and then decided to try checking my ASPI drivers. I downloaded the latest ASPI drivers from Adaptec and installed them. Now I can start VCD easy without the crash, but it can't find my CDRom burner.

Other notes, since the last time I used VCDEasy, I have upograded my system by adding a new, large hard disk, which came with it's own controller. So I have two hard disks on the new controller and the DVDRom and the CDRW on the motherboard controller. Could this be the cause of the problem? Do I have to do something special to make CDRDao aware of the second controller?

After some fiddling with ASPI drivers, I got it to work, even though VCDEasy reports that it thinks the ASPI layer is invalid. I haven't tried using Easy CD Creator 4 yet...
