Since WMP isn't working for you, and I'm assuming it not just a bunch of MP3s on a CD where you can copy and paste them to your hard drive, try the program Easy CD-DA Extractor, which has a free 30-day trial. You'll find a nice list of alternatives, some of which are free, by clicking here.

Hope this helps,
John

You can drop and drag the whole cd to a folder. I store my mp3s on cd and thats how I load my player.
