Can't copy music from CD

[chaosblade]

My media player works properly when play any CD, but it gives an error message "Windows media player encountered an unknown error" when try to copy CD to my hard disk. I am sure there is no problem in my disk because when i copy that same cd to laptop it didn't give this error. Why can't i copy my music from a cd to my computer. Any advice/tips would be greatly appreciated.

Windows Media Player encountered an unknown error. This can occur when another program or operating system component encounters a problem but does not communicate the nature of the problem to Windows Media Player.

What version of WMP do you have? It's possible that one file is corrupted, maybe it was created with a non-windows media supplied codec and there is a problem with the codec while reading the file. What file type is it ?

1. Open Windows Explorer.
2. Click Tools, and select Folder Options.
3. Click the View tab, select Show hidden files and folders, uncheck Hide extensions for known file types and Hide protected operating system files, and click OK.
4. Temporarily move the licenses file from 'C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\drm' to another backup folder.
5. Delete the following two registry keys:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\DRMand] and
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows Media\WMSDK\General]
6.Close the registry editor.
