others have mentioned this in other topics...music works fine for me. Do you listen to music cds on your computer often? (if not, check to make sure the cd volume isn't muted or turned down, I had that problem

Default Re: Music?????

I think I have solved the lack of CD audio problem. I was having the same problem as everyone else. I reinstalled Windows ME on the weekend and when I reinstalled SE4 the CD audio worked flawlessly. On my previos installation of Windows, I beleive that my default CD audio player was Real Player(jukebox). And of course on a fresh install of windows, the default player is the windows cd player, or Media Player 7 if you have ME installed. So I think that SE4 tries to detect either the windows default Cd player and if its anything other than the two mentioned above it won't play the CD tracks. So I think if people are having this trouble they should try to set the CD audio player back to one of the default, instead of third pary one they are using like Real Player, Win Amp, ect. Hope this helps. By the way I think the music is excellent, and definatley adds ambience to the game.

Yeah, you should check your volume controls. Double click on the speaker icon to open it up. Check it out

I have Real Jukebox as my default and the music plays fine for me. I also had my volume very low so at first I didn't know the music worked.
