Solution
Enable the operating system's Digital Audio Extraction feature for
CD/DVD ROM drive by following these steps:
• Start the "Device Manager" (consult your operating system's online help for
information on accessing "Device Manager").
• Click the "+" sign to the left of the "DVD/CD-ROM drive(s)" item in the list.
• Right-click on the "DVD/CD-ROM drive(s)" device for which you wish to
enable the "Digital Audio Extraction" feature, and select the "Properties"
menu item.
• Select the "Properties" tab from the "Properties" sheet.
• Check the "Enable digital CD audio for this CD-ROM device" box. If the
checkbox is disabled, your drive does not support this feature and you will
not be able to listen to CD Audio with the XT1.
• Note: You may need to restart you computer for this change to take effect.
When using Windows 98SE you will need to use software which supports
"Digital Audio Extraction" such as Microsoft Windows Media Player 7 or
higher. Your CD Drive will also need to support "Digital Audio Extraction."
Otherwise you will not be able to hear CD audio.
Check the computer operating system volume level and decrease it if necessary.
Unplug the 3.5 mm stereo cable from the audio source. Then plug it into
the headphone jack of an alternate audio source (e.g., Walkman, Discman
or FM radio).
Broken audio issue should resolve itself once Windows 98SE has finished the
loading cycle.
Quit one or more applications until the problem is resolved or increase
computer memory (RAM) or storage space.
Push the "–" button to decrease the volume.
Adjust the computer operating system volume and balance levels to the
center as a starting point, then adjust the level on the speaker using the
volume control.
WAV files are often of poor quality, so distortion and noise are easily noticed
with high-powered speakers. Try a different audio source such as a music CD.
Adjust audio source EQ levels to "flat."
Move your speakers until the interference goes away.
Control master volume by using the "+" and "–" volume buttons on the right
satellite speaker or the master and wave level controls on the computer's
operating system.
