There's no "Multimedia" setup in XP Pro because it's all built-in now. Kinda was in 98, too, but that was left over for folks with older computer.

Dave, I'm gonna go out on a limb here and say the CD is either a) blank, b) bad, or c) a data CD, not an audio CD. If you can double-click the CD/DVD drive icon and see files, then it's a data CD that you recorded. The music is there, it's just not recognizable as a music CD to a CD player or CD Player software.

Listen to George. He's on a roll. You need Audio Cd recording software, not just CD Burning software. Anyone have an software suggestions for Dave? Something cheap and easy to use?
