CD Player does not play sound due to MSCDEX driver is being loaded.
Cause:
Windows 95 is using a CD-ROM driver originally designed for DOS and Windows 3.x by loading the driver and MSCDEX (the Microsoft CD-ROM extensions). If older drivers are installed when Windows 95 Setup begins, it automatically detects and configures the older drivers.
Solution:
Remove any references to Mscdex in Autoexec.bat and reboot.
1) Edit Autoexec.bat.
2) Make sure any lines containing Mscdex.exe are preceded by 'REM'.
3) Restart the computer:
a) Click the 'Start' button to display the 'Start' menu.
b) Select 'Shut Down...'. (The 'Shut Down Windows' dialog box appears.)
c) Select the 'Restart the computer' radio button and click 'Yes'. (The computer restarts.)
