    You need to download some additional video codecs for this to play properly.

    What prgram are you using to try and play mp3 on your PC

    Assuming you are using WMP, even if not - you still need codecs for mp3 to play

    Download codecs below and install with recommended settings
    Free-Codecs.com : XP Codec Pack 2.4.6 is one of the most completed codec packs

    But if it was missing codecs then other mp3 cd's should not be playing & also if it were missing codecs the explorer should at least show the files.

    Is the drive on your computer a CD/DVD drive? DVDs won't play on a regular CD/CDRW drive.
