Oh my, I don't know whether to laugh or be embarrassed! You know, for years I
didn't pay much attention to this strange defect (my computer would play MP3s
from CDs but not play CD audio from them) but I remember that when it first
occurred I imagined it was a result of some software I had installed. I now
realize that I must have been jiggering with some hardware one day and
disconnected the sound card -- RIGHT! It was when I fried my old Turtle Beach
sound card and bought a new one, I never hooked up the CDROM cable to it. And
I assumed it was some sort of driver issue and never bothered to investigate!
Ug, I can't believe I never bothered to look. :-)
Thank you!
