Please post your code.  Specifically the part that's giving you problems.


Music.PlayFile ( fileName : string )

Music.PlayFile ("branden3.wav")

*.wav, *.mp3, and (I think) *.mod.
You might want to check the reference to be sure.

Check the path to make sure it's right.
if you don't specify the whole tree, it'll only look in the folder where the turing program is.
ie.
Music.PlayFile ("SultansOfSwing.mp3")
  will only play the song if SultansOfSwing.mp3 is in the same folder as your turing program
however,
Music.PlayFile ("C:\My Documents\My Music\Dire Straits\SultansOfSwing.mp3")
should play it, and it doesn't have to be in the same folder as the program.

other then that, check to make sure everything is spelled correctly.
