Default Converting Mp3 files (Q)

I have a few MP3 files on my PC that I want to burn onto a cd to listen to in the car. The CD player will not read MP3 encoded discs though.

Can I convert the MP3 file into a media the player will operate with?

I have Window's XP home but no additional software at the moment

You need to converte them into .wav files mate.

Go onto www.download.com and in the search bar type mp3 into wav and it should bring up avaliable programmes for you to download and use to convert files.

Windows XP should do it for you. Simply chuck in a CD-R move the Mp3s across to the blank disc folder and Windows should ask if you want to create an audio or data disc. You would then need to select audio disc. Job done!
