Playing audio CDs

Your computer comes equipped to play back audio CDs using Windows Media Player. In addition, you can use WinDVD or a third party audio player to play back Audio CDs. Audio CDs will autoplay when inserted. If you have Windows XP, a menu will appear that allows you to choose from the players that are installed in your system. CDs that have both audio and data will start any autoplay programs in the Data section instead of putting up a menu. To play the audio on CDs with both audio and programs, cancel the data portion, right click on the drive letter in My Computer, and select Play.

To play audio CDs on your drive, you must enable digital playback for both the drive and the player application.

Configuring the drive for digital playback

Your CD playback application must also be configured for digital playback for CD audio to be heard on your system. If you want to use Windows Media Player as your playback application, follow the instructions in “Enabling digital audio extraction for Windows 2000”, to enable this feature in Windows Media Player.
