Are you trying to rip the entire CD? Track 1 is a data track, so that might be giving the problems.

I HAVE ANOTHER QUESTION, I FOUND THE TRACKS (MONGOL HORDE WAR DRUMS) AND I WANT TO RIP THIS TRACK, BUT WHEN I GO TO DO IT , IT GIVES ME THIS CAN'T TRANSFER DATA TO A FLASH PLAYER...

BASICALLY WHAT I WANT TO DO IS RIP THE TRACKS I WANT OFF CIV2 DISK AND PUT THEM ON MY FLASH MP3 PORTABLE PLAYER I HAVE FOR WHEN I RUN..THOSE WAR DRUMS SOUND AWESOME...

HOW DO I DO THIS?

I'd say he just wants to rip the tracks he wants

[War4ever]

yeah, i want to rip only a few of the tracks....some of them really annoy me

Not sure if your question has been answered, but

You can use this utility to convert the avi to mpeg-1 format.

http://www.tmpgenc.net/e_main.html

You can use the following utility to convert the mpeg-1 to mp3 (that is, lose the video).

http://www.dbpoweramp.com/dmc.htm

Both are free and run about 1.5 MB.

Copy the avi's from the CD to your hard drive, run the conversions, then delete everything except the mp3's.

Edit: I lost my Civ disk last year, so I hav not tested it. It should work. To save time, download the first utility and try it. If it work, download the second.

thanks for the help, i will let you know if it works

Static23: That rips the music from the videos, but not from the CD audio tracks, which war4ever is after.
And for the thing you're suggesting, I know a program that can do all of what you mentioned, and is half as big as either of them at that: http://www.virtualdub.org

VirtualDub can't rip tracks from CD's though, which dbPoweramp does seem to be capable of (w4e?)...

Sorry if I read the situation wrong. CDex is a program which can rip the audio tracks off a CD into mp3 format. Perhaps this will be more helpful?

ok, i can seem to figure out which program is better for me....CDEX i can't seem to make work. either that or i have no clue what i am trying to rip?

i want to rip the mongol horde war drums that play when you have the music turned on, and perhaps a few other tracks...

but they dont' seem to come up as tracks, and they are not digital?

i am getting headaches...
