relaize this is off topic but hoping someone can help...

Windoze Media Player V9 not playing 24 bit WAV files. Plays everything else just fine. Any suggestions?

WinXP Home OS

I know it will play these files because I tried it on another PC. Can't seem to find a setting or option anywhere. Must be something amiss but what?

It wasn't a big deal. I felt silly even posting this here. I rarely use that program anyway. Just thought it was a bit strange that it didn't work. I know Media Player will work with 24 bit files because I can play them on another PC so maybe it's an issue of CODEC's or something missing. Not sure and not worth worrying about. Thanks for responding though.
