Under Windows 2000 if the user doesn't have administrator rights, they can't open audio files from CD's (unknown error opening one or more files) Any suggestions?

Login as administrator and place the account you normally use in the administrator's group. Right click My computer, select manage, Under system tools you'll see users and groups (expand by clicking the + sign), select groups, in the right pane you'll see Administrators, right click and add to group, click the Add button, add your login.

Someone correct me if I left anything out.

If you don't have admin access, you'll have to talk with someone who does. I'm also assuming you're not in a domain that has global and local security policies created by some BOFH.
