Hi Ronni, Hi Michael,

I wouldn't think it would be a commercial music CD with 100 wav files on it
;o) 

I would think that someone has created this on a (Windows?) PC - and maybe
they used some strange encoding parameters.

Michael, You say you can play it only on a couple of Windows PCs that have
Windows 7 installed - will Itunes for Windows, running on these Windows 7
machines import the tracks?

Either way, if Mark's suggestion of VLC doesn't work (or if it's an easier
route for your situation) I would think your best bet would be to get the CD
in one of the Windows 7 machines that plays it OK and then re-encode it in a
standard format to suit you - mp3 or whatever you prefer.


Cheers



Neil
