Miserable plea for help
I've tried everything I can think of, and I can't play music on my computer. It's a Dell running Windows 2000, and every music program exhibits variations on the same problem. The program will start out playing music, then will either stop and I have to restart the track (Foobar), or stop and refuse to play anything else (Winamp, Foobar), or stop and freeze altogether (MusicMatch Jukebox, Windows Media Player). In every case, I can then only play music if I restart the computer.
This happens with both .mp3's and CD's. Oh, and system sounds play fine.
I need my music. Does anybody have any clue whatsoever about this?
UPDATE: I might have it fixed. That is to say, MusicMatch Jukebox has successfully played 3 songs in a row for nearly 10 minute's worth of uninterrupted music. I think the problem is caused by the hateful, hateful Lotus Notes program. How I despise that program. But it's required for work e-mail.
