I found out my newly installed SCSI CD was not properly supported by cdtool and dcd... cdtool's cdplay can't start it, whereas dcd can... but dcd doesn't show it playing when it actually does, whereas cdtool's cdinfo shows it as playing. Weird. Maybe it's the same with your stuff... try different players (if you haven't already). HTH, Bye, J --=20 J=FCrgen A.

This might sound like a dumb sugesstion, but did you double check the cable that goes from the CD drive to the soundcard? I forgot all about that cable once - took me most of a week before I thought to check it. The cable was still sitting in my parts box. Another time I had a bad cable - one of the leads was broken internally. Second thing I would do is fire up a mixer-type program and see what the CD audio level is set to. It just might be set all the way down. The Ensoniq Soundscape I have in this machine was a bit of a pain in the ass that way for a while. -- Mike Werner KA8YSD | He that is slow to believe anything and | everything is of great understanding, '91 GS500E| for belief in one false principle is the Morgantown WV | beginning of all unwisdom. pgpgltASPPBSd.pgp Description: PGP signature

This is a dual boot machine and cd audio works in the other (W98) system. I guess I should just get a new sound card. -- I'm here to paint but I've forgotten my brush... You got beer? Mark Schiltz

Two thoughts: (1) Is there a cable inside the computer connecting the CD-ROM to the sound card? (2) Run a Linux mixer program. Is the CD audio volume non-zero?
