sound advice

Music and movie CD's play but the sound is choppy . I'm not sure if it's the optic drive or the software that has a problem. One driver is from Dell (HL-DT-ST CDRW/DVD GCC4482) and the other is a MAD DOG (MD- XDVD9). Not sure what changed. They used to play just fine. Also, not sure why it doesn't play as loud as it used to. Help!

Sorry for the delay.

I'd suggest re-loading your Dell audio driver.

You can locate your model's drivers here:

I'll give it a shot. Thanks.

Sorry it took so log to reply. I've been kind of busy. Only just found out that the audio properties had been messed with. That's why I wasn't getting A lot of sound from my speakers. thanks
