Thanks Tim,

You were right.
There are no audio cables sticking out of the drives. I would not have 
guessed it, because under windows, Audio and DVD cds play fine. Well, all I 
have to do now is locate the audio jack on the all-in-one mother baord I've 
got in this machine. If anything, I'll be calling Compaq to see if they will 
point me in the right direction to connect the cables.

Thanks for the help.

George
