I have copied some files from a WinXP machine (using mount_smb)... when I try to listen to them... I just get about a half second of noise. Not really static... and definitely not music. Just a strange noise. Different noise for each song I try and the same song always ganerates the same noise. Any ideas? -- Regards, Eric
