cd rom problem


Hi there,

    The music CD is not playing on my computer. But if I convert the wav files into MP3 files I could play them. Why this is happening? When I shut down the system it plays the exit windows sound. Why it works for windows not music CDs.

    Please help me with this.
    Thanking you
    dev.

CD AUDIO may be muted, double click on little speaker in system tray, check your audio settings. Lastly, the audio wires that connect to your soundcard may be loose.  Can you play a CD and hear it through the headphone jack? (using headphones of course, don't try sticking your ear up to the jack hole)

if the above fails, try this:
i had similar problem with my cd player, after playing certain games sometimes the cd player would stop working( no sound),? do not know why?, but if i put the tomb raider 2 cd in  and ran TR2
for a minute or so , on exiting windows the sound would have magically returned,
i think its cos TR2 is so aggresive when it runs... Bill
