CD burner creating mute CD-Rs ...

[Squawk7777]

Here's the following scenario:

Win 98, HP 9900 and Easy CD Creator 5 with the updated version.

If I create a music CD or simply copy an audio CD, the CD player or computer shows the current track and track time of the created CD-R but there's NO sound.

Any suggestions?

Will the music play using a different computer?

That will narrow it down to the CD or your computer

the CD will be recognized as an audio CD - both in the computer or CD player - but there's no sound. I tried the CD in different CD players and computer CD drives ... same thing.

Squawk7777,

I am wondering if the problem is with your CD-Burner. Let me know if this is part of the problem you are having:

HP CD-Writer and CD-Writer Plus Drives - Audio Quality is Poor on a Written CD Using Easy CD Creator (http://www.hp.com/cposupport/information_storage/support_doc/lpg40816.html)

Thanks for your help guys ...

"write disc at once" seems to fix that problem - no idea why...

.. but who cares?
