The reason why you get sound when your playing audio CD's is because there's a direct audio cable coming from the CD rom drive which sends raw output sound; in order to have sound from your programs, the sound card drivers should be properly installed and is enabled in windows as well, you can check this by going to your device manager:
for win98: go to control panel, open system, click device manager, look for the the category "sound, video and games controllers" and check if the sound card's drivers are installed properly or if getting any error (you'll see a yellow "!" warning which means your device has a problem), you might need to re-install or up-date the sound card drivers in windows.
Usually windows 98 computers have this problem. if you go onto microsofts site and look for windows 98 media player updates then it should sort this problem. otherwise you coud do one of the following:
- purchase windows xp from pc world or somewhere simular or otherwise just download from the internet using a download program called a bit torrent tracker ( a program which lets you download software and things for free....which is on the slide if you know what i mean)
- check that the volume on media player is set to play out
any problems still let me know by email [email protected]
