112955 2003-01-11 08:16:00 I am playing a CD through my Windows Media and this Window has popped up saying

DIRECT SOUND ERROR

Turn off Midi App To Run D Sound

!!!!!! What does that mean and can anyone tell me what I should do.

This error message can mean you need to update Direct X drivers, however IMHO Windows Media is clunky for playing CD's and I use Windows native CD player <C:\windows\cdplayer.exe>.

If you choose this option you will have to work over the relevant settings to remove autoplay from Windows Media and assign cdplayer.exe to audio CDs.
