Giuseppe,

Off hand, I can think of the following that may be affecting CD audio:

a) There is a special cable for audio that connects a CD-ROM to the sound
card internally.  Perhaps that cable is missing, or is malfunctioning.

b) Your mixer settings may be allowing digital sounds through, but the CD
line setting may be set to 0.

Hope this is of some help.

Regards,

Justin P. Michel
