I've run into this before, but I can't seem to find the program I downloaded or what I did to get past it.

I have a brand new audio CD that plays fine in my car and my home stereo but my computer won't recognize it is even in the drive. I have many programs that can play and/or rip audio and none of them see the disk in the drive. I'm not having the problem with two other music CDs I bought today, they're working fine and I probably have some 1400 CDs I can play and rip on my computer.

All I want to do is rip the CD to my PC Library so I can send it to my MP3 players.

My memory is very vague, but I think it had to do with somehow using a piece of s/w to skip the first track on the adio which was data meant to confuse the computer or something like that.

Any ideas? Thanks for any help.

What CD is it? Some of the newer copy protected CDs won't play in CD-ROM drives.
