I'm glad everything turned out all right and everything's fixed. Yep,
sometimes sound card drivers, for whatever reason, can go bad. I haven't
had it happen to me *knock on wood* but I know it's common. Glad it's
fixed though!!!!

Hi Chris and Marty and all who answered my problem.
Fortunately everything is working now. I had a sighted friend over today
and he found several problems including a corrupted sound card
driver. Now all is well including my problem with station info in
winamp. We reinstalled winamp and he did some tweaking here and there and
things are ok now. I wish I knew all he did so I could pass it on to
others who seem to be having the same problem with station info. I think
basically Chris he did uncheck a few things in prefferences including the
one you had mentioned with station info.
Thanks guys for your interest. Hope I can return the favor some day.

Hey Bud
I wonder if those particular files have all been corrupted somehow? Try
playing files that you absolutely know are good and see what
happens. You can tell if a file has been corrupted if it has a 0 byte
count. This means that the file is actually on your drive, but for
whatever strange reason, nothing is in it. You can tell how big a file is
by going to the file in question, hit your context menu key, 2 keys to
the left of the left arrow key and from the menu, choose properties. If
the file is 1 or 2 mb and it looks normal, then the file is fine. but if
it says 0 bytes or if it's really really small, then either the file is
corrupted or something else is wrong.
Hope this gets you in the right direction.

Hi Marty,
I tried that and still nothing. It does play the music in the winamp
library however. I have reinstalled but will try it again and see what
happens.
Thanks for the interest.

Hi, Bud, if the winamp window is showing with your title bar, then,
could it be that winamp's volume is down? If this is so, try starting a
file, then pressing the up arrow, and holding it in, and see if you
start hearing music, if not, maybe a reinstallation of winamp might be
in order.
