This article was previously published under Q149193 SYMPTOMS
When you are playing an audio CD using the CD Player tool in Windows 95,
your computer may stop responding (hang) when you click Stop in CD Player.
CAUSE
This behavior can occur if you are using a Sony CDU-76E CD-ROM drive. The
computer hangs because of a timing problem between the CD Player tool and
the CD-ROM drive.
RESOLUTION
To prevent this behavior from occurring, allow more than one second to
elapse between clicking Play and Stop in CD Player. If you click Stop
immediately after clicking Play, the computer may hang.
MORE INFORMATION

computers as original equipment. Sony Corporation is aware of this
problem. The CDU-76E CD-ROM drive is no longer in production; it has
been replaced by the new model CDU-77E CD-ROM drive.
