low volume on new cd-rw

[rick O'shea]

cd's play, but the volume is so low it can hardly be heard. I've tried adjusting the volume controls (panel), but still get the same low volume. I'm at a loss .....can anyone help?

I am wondering what the source of the cdrw'a audio files were. Was it pre-recorded music or cd's that you burned?

What options in the volume control panel did you try?

Have you looked in the advanced section of the Sounds and Multimedia in the control panel? Look on the Audio tab of the Sounds and Multimedia properties. Look at Sound Playback>advanced>performance tab.......see where your hardware acc. is set.

I've gone though all options, and all volumes .... mute ...etc ... but still I've got the sound. It's just reeaalllll LOW. Could this be a connection problem? Everything that I could find on the volume control is set on max. Did I answer your Q?\

Sorry to double ck like this......but where I was speaking of is NOT gotten to via the spkr icon on system tray.....just making sure you followed where I said while ago.

I'm sorry ..... I don't see a Audio tab of the Sounds and Multimedia properties. I'm at a loss here ....

OK .... it's set for soundfusion ....and I went through all I could find and set them to high. still ...... I've got to set the speakers up high to hear any thing..... what next?

Thanx ~ Rick

I'm sorry I'm such a BONEHEAD, but I really cannot figure out why this players volume is soooooo low. I've checked everything I could think of, and everything you've suggested ..... but ..... no solution.

NotRite² .....are you there?
I've gone through all those steps, and I'm still suffering. Can you offer any more ideas?
Thanx,

What media player do you use to play the music? Have you checked the options, mute, volume, equaliser (if applicable), settings there?
If you have more than one player on your system (maybe windows media player and real player) check it with another player just to check.

Yo MOBY!!!
Yeah .... I've got various media players, but that seems not to be the problem. What I end up doing to hear a CD is to load the tracks onto roxio, and play the preview. This let's me hear the music at a reasonable level, otherwise ........ still on a distant echo.....
Thx,

Hey All,
After switching back and forth between different media players I find myself back on WMP. The strange thing is that it works now, and I have no idea why. If I can figure out what the problem actually was ... then I'll re-post with that info. Thanx for your suggestions folks,
~Rick
