My name is Nancy, and I'm new to this list. Thank you all for letting me join. > My question is; I am using JFW version 5.0, and Windows 98, with only onboard audio, no sound card, and Winamp 503a. I used to be able to play mid files through Winamp when I had 2.81, but for some reason recently, even that version wasn't playing my .mid files, even when I selected .mid in the file types under the Winamp preferences. So I switched to Winamp version 503a, and selected all file types there too, and my .mid files still won't play. > Someone had mentioned to me that I should have someone sighted look in byos for me to make sure the settings were all set to allow .mid files, but when I had my husband look, he said there was nothing that even had to do with .mid, and he thinks that's because I don't have a sound card. > Does anyone have a suggestion as to what I can do to get my .mid files to play??? > I'd appreciate any input you guys might have. > Thanks. > Nancy > To post a message to the list, send it to winamp4theblind@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx > > To unsubscribe from this mailing list, please send a message to: > winamp4theblind-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with the word unsubscribe in the subject line. > Archives located at: > //www.freelists.org/archives/winamp4theblind> > If you have any concerns about the list, post received from the list, or > the way the list is being run, do not post them to the list directly.
