Vista HomePremium Sp1, 2gb ram Having a problem playing wavs (ripped from my cds or downloaded) or audio cds with wmp (and media centre) A fraction of a second after starting play I get a brief "screech" and then the rest of the track plays normally. This also happens when I hit the next track button, the track starts, then a screech then normal play. You also get the screech when you use the seek bar to go to a different part of the track. Playing the wav (or cd) in other players works fine, ie I have tried xmplay and vlc. At first I heard the problem when I used audiograbber to rip a cd to wav files, I played the wavs and heard the screech and assumed the cd was dirty, cleaned it, cleaned the cd drive with a commercial head cleaner etc. I then played the files in other players and found they played perfectly. I could just ignore the problem and associate wavs (and cds) with another player, but I quite like wmp. ![]() I have uploaded a sample of the problem I captured to a mp3. '01 - Track 1.mp3' (http://www.mediafire.com/?vsrh2vcc9lq) , 221kb The first screech is just after the start of the track, the next screeches are as I use the seek bar to move into the track. For those wondering the track is "It's all Coming Back to Me Now", by Pandora's Box. -- Sintares |

That's what I'm thinking too - since it happens on a seek event, it's almost certainly the sound card drivers. -- Speaking for myself only.
