I then Tried to make a simple menu using the tutorials provided buy vcd help for vcdeasy this would have been great if vcdeasy worked with my PC, the aspi drivers would not work and when I applied the patch to force the drivers to be recognised it didnt work either.(yes norton was off when I updated the aspi force drivers if ya asking)

For ultimate customabillity, you will need to author your VCDs manually: http://www.michaeltam.com

There is no "easy" way.

BTW, it is a common myth that CDRDAO is only "compatible" with a low number of burners. In reality, CDRDAO is compatible with essentially ALL modern IDE burners.

The problem is usually your ASPI layer. The best way is to download and install ForceASPI. Then REBOOT immediately.

In any case, if you want to try using VCDEasy, there is no need to use the included burning proggy (CDRDAO) if you can't get it to work. You can use VCDEasy / VCDImager to create an image of your VCD in CUE/BIN format and then burn that with a number of other burning proggies such as CDRWin, the newer versions of Nero, BlindWrite, etc..

http://www.vcdeasy.org has a number of strategies on burning CUE/BIN images.

Its seems my problem is solved , I found a useful tutorial on making simple menus with nero(Is was right in front of my face dah), I used fly vcd or picture2vcd to make my mpeg slideshows with music and transition effects.
The Nero menu although limited in function, with a few snazzie graphics it came out with a polished and professional look that I was very pleased with.
I have the problem with my aspi drivers in easyvcd and I have downloaded the aspiforce drivers, and still no joy?
