Hi

I have a few CDs that won't play some of their songs properly. The songs
play fine on the stereo and dvd player, but they always jump about in the PC.
They are Now That's What I Call Music 62 & Robbie Williams Greatest Hits that

It's probably a blessing that they don't play, but musical
differrences apart, have you tried giving the disks a wipe down with a
damp cloth ? Sometimes small smudges can cause tracking errors with
the laser pickup in the CD drive.

PS - can we assume you're trying to play em in WM Player ?

HTH
Cheers - Neil
