You have a host of issues.

I would say the primary problem is listening from cd, which is the primary 
reason for the problem.  

Here would be my recommendation, but it isn't necessarily a cheap one.

1.  upgrade to Windows XP.
2. Upgrade go Goldwave 5.14 (current version).
3. Upgrade Winamp to version 5.2.
4. Once you have Goldwave 5.14 you can take the audio from the cd and save it 
on your hard drive as an mp3 file so that you don't have to deal with the 
issues involved reading from the cd while reading.

The biggest problem is that I am guessing the cd drive reads at a fairly slow 
rate, and it cannot read fast enough to keep up with the speed at which the 
audio is going out.  So, yes there is a buffer issue, but it is caused by a 
slow cd drive.

Subject: recording on my thinkpad skips


: Hello all, wonder if anyone can help?
: I have a thinkpad that's a few years old; trying to record audio through its 
: sound card.  The recording skips occasionally.  Not terrible, just enough to 
: be annoying.
: 
: Thinkpad running win 98 SE, using GoldWave 4.26 to record.
: 
: Here's maybe a clue to the problem:  when i listen to long audio (winamp 
: 2.9) files (half hour radio shows, etc.) there are long pauses in playback 
: while the cd is being read--this doesn't happen when the file is on the hard 
: drive.  I think it must have something to do with buffering?
: 
: Help, please?
