First problem is with my Windows Media Player:
I have the newest one (the one included with Windows ME) and when I try to play a WAV, MP3, or WMV, I get no audio. The file plays, but I get no audio. Other times I get an error message that says "Wmplayer caused an error in [unknown]" and it shuts down. I know the problem is not with my sound card or speakers, because audio CDs and RealPlayer files play just fine. Do you know how I can fix this?

Second is with running software in Windows ME:
My computer originally came with Windows 98 and I ran that for 3 years. I recently upgraded to Windows ME and I'm having a few problems. First, is trying to run some of my CD-ROM games that worked just fine in Windows 98. I had uninstalled them before upgraded to clear some disk space and intended to reinstall them in Windows ME. All my CD-ROMs work perfectly except for two - Trivial Pursuit Millenium Edition and Adobe PhotoDeluxe 3.1. Here are the messages I got after installation:
TRIVAL PURSUIT ERROR MESSAGE WHEN TRYING TO START PROGRAM:
Windows cannot run this program because it is in an invalid format
AND
The C:/WINDOWS/SYSTEM/DSOUND.DLL file is corrupt. Please reinstall the file and try again.
ADOBE ERROR MESSAGE WHEN TRYING TO START:
C:/Program Files/PhotoDeluxe HE 3.1/PD3.EXE A device attached to the system is not functioning
AND
SHELL32.DLL file linked to missing export SHLWAPI.DLL:SHCreateStreamOnFileA.
Do you know how I can fix this and make the games work?

Third is a CD-RW drive question:
I really, REALLY want a CD-RW drive but when I took my computer to have one installed, the shop told me that my system was too small and it kept crashing whenever they tried to use it, so they had to take the drive out. Is there anyway to get around that? And would I be able to use any type of external CD-RW drives? I have a Packard Bell, Windows ME (upgraded from Windows 98), 48x speed CD-ROM drive, 6.4 GB hard drive and a MII -333 MMX Enhanced Processor. Would I be able to use one?

Can you help with any of these?
