are these sound files and CD-Rom's home made or "store bought"? The computer re-plays the sound files [wav,mp3] etc as they were recorded.

Had about the same situation once, but that was when I upgrade Windows Media 8 to 9. The musics when listened sounded like bunch of chipmunks singing. What I did was, reinstall sound driver on my PC.

If this helps, great! If not, I hope you will find a solution.

I have seen this problem but with compaq deskpro's and it drove me crazy.. The way i got it to work was to get the correct drivers from teh maufacturer. Go to dells site and get the latest driver for your machine type/ sound card.. If that is old then i would go the manufacturer of your sound cards site and get the newest driver.... I bet you that fixes it..

After you updated to ME did you re-install the MOBO's software drivers? This should be done after installing the OS everytime.
