unable to open "openpci.library" ver.1

[zyphoid]

lately I've been getting a message "unable to open pci.library ver.1" on numerous programs which I try to open rendering them useless.  Who Knows what this is about?
It happened after I did a reinstall of my os startup partition, asimplayer won't play either when a cd is installed. it just statics! :-?

I have this problem too, usually when 1st using Amplifier after a boot up.

Just clicking on OK or Cancel (I forget which atm) generally allows Amplifier to work. It's an annoyance rather than a complete block.

FWIW I have version 2.1 installed.

same thing here, I guess it is AHI's fault...

as said it does not matter so much because it is just a requester nothing more but it is annoying  :-(

Just remove all drivers for PCI soundcards from Devs:AHI and Devs:Audiomodes. Why did you install them at all if you don't own the sound cards ?

I've reported such requesters by AHI drivers as a bug before. IMO driver should just quietly give up if such thing as openpci.library or the actual card itself is not present.

Or at least if any messages are displayed, they should be non-interactive, or there should be possibility to prevent the messages from appearing in the future.

Or if none of the above is acceptable, at least tell which bloody thing is generating the requester. ;-)

What Thomas said will work. I had the same problem and removed all drivers from devs/ahi and that solved it.

Erm, you should at least keep those drivers you need (e.g. Paula).

I have this poblem too, but the text box header mentions the 'exemul10.audio' file or something close to that. If you remove that 'emulation' driver from the drawer AHI should behave as expected. I'm to try this myself with little doubt that it's the cure, but I'm hunting a different AHI issue (USB.audio driver??).
