| 1319017 | 2012-12-19 00:07:00 | Just tried to rip a much newer CD with Winamp, without luck; pop up the following error: "Winamp has stopped working. Windows can check online for a solution. -> Check Online for a solution and close the program. -> Close the program. " Looks like it's another compatibility issue with this 'cheap' version of Windows OS (Win8). :D |

" Looks like it's another compatibility issue with this 'cheap' version of Windows OS (Win8). :D Maybe if you used a program that actually works the " cheap " OS wouldn't be so much trouble. ;) A lot of problems occur when people don't know how to use the OS, or try to use outdated programs that are not compatible. Why not use the inbuilt WMP to rip the CD's - it works perfectly Fine, and once learnt its child's play. Open WMP, put in a Music CD - right click in the CD title bar (Once only task- this is to bring up options) click Show Menu Bar - you can then go into the ripping options ( tools/Options/ Ripping Music) and change them to suit, then save, simply click Rip CD, and away It goes. Its quick as well, just ripped a 23 track CD @256Kbps in the time it took to write this. |

| 1319020 | 2012-12-19 09:06:00 | As in my post #10, I've ripped the CD with WMP successfully. As also mentioned that I prefer to use Winamp for no specific reasons. | bk T (215) | ||
| 1319021 | 2012-12-19 09:50:00 | Missed that post / comment - sorry about that. While we all have a fav program, personally, if one doesn't work for what ever reason and there's another that does the same job and does, Know which I'd use :) Cant really go blaming a New OS because an existing program has yet to be changed to keep up. Been doing a bit of reading and it appears many people are having different problems with Winamp/W8. Theres several programs about that are not meant to be compatible with W8, yet work fine. |

| 1319022 | 2012-12-20 10:40:00 | Bought it in 1984. Playback is still perfect. 1984 is getting a bit old now - almost 30 years! Are there any pin holes? "Perfect" playback means nothing, during playback errors are usually skipped over and replaced with silence, since the damage is so small you notice nothing. Most CD ripping programs want to ensure an exact copy, so when they do hit a damaged patch, problems happen. Windows Media Player may well just skip over the error also. Personally I use EAC and FLAC. You may also want to try another drive |

| 1319023 | 2012-12-20 11:00:00 | It is old - it's something like the first generation CD and I paid for (from memory) around Singapore $60.00 for it! Just for your info, I still have the complete set of sound system in good condition, except the pair of speakers which were stolen in 1990! I've tried the other optical drive (I've 2 DVD drives in my PC) with the same results. |

| 1319025 | 2012-12-20 19:05:00 | CD's can degrade after a while. I got a few that wont read anymore yet look perfectly fine. If they are kept out of the light they do last longer. | wainuitech (129) | ||
| 1319026 | 2012-12-20 19:21:00 | VLC has a new record function, you could try that while playing the CD in VLC. | zqwerty (97) | ||
