Hi Tim: Try downloading and installing: http://www.aph.org/tech/bp_setup.exe Also, make sure you're running Internet Explorer 5.0. Usually, ase errors are either some kind of speech conflict or setup issues. Try running the above and see if you don't get a better result. If not, we'll look into it further.

I tried to install it on a computer running XP home edition. I received a message that "could not open ASE." When I tried to run the program, I received "error 00000007 and a comment about ASE." I have not explored APH to find an updated version of the transfer program, but it seems taht the cd should work. Does anyone have any suggestions regarding this problem and how to solve it? Thanks.
