When playing games like, Heroes of Might&Magic 3, or Broken Sword 1, that play sound from CD(not audio cd, they're in wav/mp3 or video format), the sound comes out "choppy". My driver is LG CD-Writer.
I copied the sound files to my Hard Disk and played them without problems, so I'm guessing it has something to do with my CD-ROM driver "reading" sound files. But there are no problems when playing video, copying files, burning CD, etc. So I thought problem was not caused by the driver's optic reader, or whatever it's called.
There are sometimes problems playing music from CD using Winamp or Media Player, but the sound doesn't come out choppy like in the games.
Thank you for your time.

sounds like not enough ram when you're playing the music cds and the game at the same time..or, maybe you don't have the read-ahead cache set high enough.
