Dan, I couldn't find any reason why Express rip would come up when Tom inserts a CD. I am thinking that another instance of express Rip is running on his machine. Maybe he can bring up the task manager with Control shift escape and see if it is running. If it is, kill it and see what happens. - Original Message - From: Dan Kerstetter dh...@comcast.net To: 'PC Audio Discussion List' pc-audio@pc-audio.org Sent: Tuesday, September 23, 2014 12:35 PM Subject: RE: How Do I Tell My Computer I Want Winamp To Play The CD?

Re: How Do I Tell My Computer I Want Winamp To Play The CD?
Hi Tom, The answers Dan has given you are completely correct and will definitely work. However as is often the case in Windows there are several ways to achieve the same result. Another method to fix this problem is to change settings in Winamp. When in the main Winamp Window press Control+P to go to the Winamp preferences. Tab until you get to a treeview in the preferences dialogue box and make sure you are on General Preferences by pressing either the up or down arrow keys. If the General Preferences branch of the treeview is closed expand it using the right arrow key. Next press the down arrow key until you get to an item in the treeview called File Types. Next press Tab until you get to an option called Launch Winamp for Audio CDs. this is a checkbox, make sure it is checked. Next Tab until you get to a button called Close and press space on that. If everything worked correctly When you insert an audio CD it should be played in Winamp. I hope this helps. Regards Steve.
