When you start Media Player, an audio CD in the CD-ROM drive may
begin playing.

This problem can occur with older NEC CD-ROM drives connected to a
Trantor SCSI adapter. These CD-ROM drives have a BIOS revision that
is not completely compatible with the Windows 95 Trantor driver.

To work around this problem, use one of the following methods:
| • | Upgrade the CD-ROM drive to a firmware revision of 2.2 or later.
Please contact the drive manufacturer for information about a
firmware upgrade.
|
| • | Prevent Windows 95 from playing audio CDs automatically. For
information about this method, please see the following article
in the Microsoft Knowledge Base:

Preventing Windows 95 from Playing Audio CDs
Automatically
|
| • | Load the real-mode driver that came with the CD-ROM drive.
To use a real-mode driver instead of the Windows 95 protected-mode
driver, load the driver in the Config.sys file, and load the Mscdex.exe
file included with Windows 95 in the Autoexec.bat file following the
manufacturer's instructions.
NOTE: If these drivers were already installed when you installed
Windows 95, they may still be in the Config.sys and Autoexec.bat
files, but be remarked out.
