Would a bad sound card cause only CDs and DVD's to not play properly, yet mp3's WAVs, Line -In and everything else sounds OK?

So many of the so called free software will identify the cause of the problems, in my case, 400, but must collect $37.00 to get rid of them. Is this on the level? I just want a good "free" software that will get rid of these. I don't want to erase my photos, but I don't care about anything else. When the scan asks if you want to get rid of items, how do I know I am not just erasing photos, and how do I know it is telling me the truth?

These items still work. I just don't want they go to skip.

My Cd s and DVDs play real sluggish and choppy, and they didnt used to do this at all. I cleaned the lens, nothing. I assumed the device was just crapped out so I bought another one, brand new. It is doing the same thing. I have an onboard sound card,and a realtek onboard audio driver and I even downloaded the updated driver for it. Still doesnt work? What could it possibly be??

It does record, but without the sound playing. There must be a way to get the sound playback at the sime time as recording otherwise it takes an age to complete the recording of an LP. PLEASE don't suggest that I don't bother and use bit torrent - they don't have all of the music that I have on LP...

I have recently purchased some speakers. [Durabrand 2.0 CH USB powered speaker system]
They are supposedly PnP however when I connect both the USB and the sound card cord into the computer it does not connect either. I have a usb flash drive that I have tried with the same USB port I am using and it does detect it, So I don't think that the usb port is messed up. Can someone help me, please?

I have 120G internal master, and 60G internal slave drives. These were getting full (mainly music), so I bought an External Seagate 320.
I moved all my music to the external, then copied back to the internal drive the stuff I listen to pretty regularly.
I defrag about 2/3 times a week - due to lots of file movements, etc. But the external drive takes ages - mainly due to analysing the drive (the actual defrag doesn't take long). It's mainly music and back-up stuff i.e. stuff I hope I never need, on the ext. Is it worth defragging more than, say, every 6 months?

I'm trying to buy some DDR333 RAM for my desktop. I've noticed on most sites they sell both EEC & NON-EEC RAM. What does this mean, and does it matter which one I get?

I want to scan a letter to my computer. What I want is the letterhead, and be able to delete the text, type another letter and print it out with the letterhead on the new document. Can this be done? The scanner software gives me a choice of .bmp, .jpg, .tif, .pdf. If I can upload to my PC, what do I open it with?

I am running Windows XP. Recently i defragmented my c:/ drive. I could finish defragmenting my files but it stated that some files couldnt be defragmented. However, when i try to view the files there were no files being shown.

I had researched and even run " chkdsk c: /f " but however the problem still exists.

What should i do?

I had even defragmented in for more than 10 times and restarted it for more than 3 times but however the problem still exists.
How?

I know how defragments works but just doesnt know why it states some files cannot be defragmented but no files were shown
