MIDI Problems

I can't play the RTP MIDI Files seperatley in WMP or anything like that, It will play the file, I just wont hear anything. I can listen to regulat MP3's, just not MIDI. I'm pretty sure I have the same sound card I did when I had it before my system got redone in the shop. I don't know if this might give you any clue to what might be going on, but lets say, when I'm playing my music, I can only hear the music, and I won't be able to hear anything else from other programs, like the dings in MSN, but when I don't have WMP up I will be able to hear it. Wasn't like that before, not sure if that will help at all.

So ya have no idea what could be wrong?

Can I ask, how come you moved from ME down to 98?

My computer is an E-Machine....need I say more?

Guess what I'm running.

Emachine. This is five years old. Came with ME. We've demoted ourselves to XP.

And it more or less works without a hitch...unless my sister does something stupid.

Well the computer guy at the store told me it would run smoother with 98, then ME. I was gonna use my upgrade disk, and put in ME, but my mom left it on the floor and I stepped on it. I think me haveing 98 is the problem, because it use to work fine.

I think 98 might be the problem too. I don't like 98.

If you've still got your activation key, you should be able to use an illegal copy of ME to put it on your computer.

Though I shouldn't be recommending things like that.
