Audio CD Stops or Skips When Common Dialog Boxes Are Activated

Last reviewed: March 27, 1995
Article ID: Q83110

SUMMARY

If the Microsoft Windows operating system version 3.1 common dialog boxes (COMMDLG.DLL) are used while playing audio CDs, the sound may phase in and out or skip.

These problems have been traced to the ASWCDSNY.SYS driver. Replacing it with the TSLCDR.SYS driver corrects these problems.

MORE INFORMATION

For example, if you choose Open from the File menu (which displays a common dialog box) while playing an audio CD, the CD will either stop playing or skip a track.

Other random problems may occur while using the ASWCDSNY.SYS driver. Other drivers may display similar problems.
