Default Problem with Lord of the Rings soundtracks

I thought Help and Technical Support would've been the best place for this, but as this isn't for a game, I thought it would be better in Chit Chat.

Anyway, I'm having a really strange problem with all 3 of my Lord of the Rings soundtracks in either Windows Media Player 11 or Windows Media Centre. Whenever I play them, the actual music is just bearly audible, but every track seems to be affected by really bad static. Now, no other audio CD I've put into my computer has had this problem. The audio has been and is crystal clear. I've tried one of the soundtrack discs (The Fellowship of the Ring) on my brother's laptop, which also has Vista and Windows Media Player 11, and it's perfectly fine. I've even tried it in a CD player and again, it's perfectly fine. And finally, I've tried burning one of the tracks from the CD onto my hard drive and it's still affected by horrible static.

I'm really stumped. What could the issue be? I have considered reinstalling Media Player 11, but Media Centre plays the CDs just the same. And no other audio CD is a problem.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
