Stop spamming.  You'll get the help you need if you give us information on your problem.  There could be a variety of reasons why the file isn't playing.  How are we to know which is the reason when all you tell us is that it doesn't work?

why dont you just post your code so we can see what you've done wrong? it makes it so much easier to help if you give us something to work with, because it could be a number of things, you could have made the music process a procedire in stead, and there for it wont fork, or maybe your not even forking it at all (as bad as that sounds) just post the code so we can help you out

Music.PlayFileLoop (" .wav")

Insert the filename there before ".wav", I already answered this question...

yea that code doesnt work... and bits dont matter to me you can take.. well heres my code...

setscreen ("graphic,title: The Apprentice By: Andrew Saggiorato,nobuttonbar")
colourback (black)

process DoMusic
    loop
        Music.PlayFile ("Apprentice.wav")
    end loop
end DoMusic

fork DoMusic

var word : string := " Do You Have What It Takes?"
var cola : int := 30
colorback (black)
for row : 1 .. 25
    for col : 1 .. 80
        put " " ..
    end for
end for
color (white)
for a : 1 .. length (word)
    locate (22, cola)
    cola += 1
    put word (a)
    delay (100)
end for

first...make sure the computer is not muted
second, where did you get this WAV file from?...if it was an mp3, use the mp3 file.  You can't just simply change the extention of the file into a WAV file...its doesnt work like that.
And thirdly, make sure that the music file exists in the directory of turing.

Change 

Music.PlayFile ("Apprentice.wav") 

to

Music.PlayFile ("C:/WINDOWS/Desktop/Apprentice.wav") 

assuming that's where you're desktop folder is.

Also, instead of going through two for loops just to change the colour of the background (bad idea.  Takes way too much processing power), just put cls after your colourback.

Btw, in trying to find "Andrew Saggiorato", google coughed up a whopping one result:

damn yer dumb kid...i just told you not to convert it.  If you can't even come up with a simple Q&A program, im positive you do not know how to properly convert an mp3 into a WAV.  Just use the flippin mp3 file.  Turing does support mp3 files.
