I'm having difficulty playing CDs through my cd-rom drive.
The problem is when i try to listen to my Cds, there is no sound.
The only way i can listen to them is through the Windows Media Player.
It seems to play when i try to use the CD player listed under "entertainment" in the start menu, but i still dont hear anything.
So can someone give me some advice on what i'd be able to do to get it working again!

did you connect the audio cable from the CD deck to the auxiliary input on the motherboard or sound card?

It sure sounds like the cable but ...Have you checked the volume controls. Double click the yellow speaker in the systray.
