Whenever I rip a CD, near the ending of this process the ripping slows down a lot and the hard drive starts making weird noises, like turning a fan on and off all the time… but in a certain pattern of 3 seconds on and another 3 seconds off, and when the CD finishes ripping, I listen to the song that was to be ripped when this problem occurs and it happens to play skipped… like if the CD was scratched.
This happens specially with my CD: Urban Hymns, by The Verve and Made In Japan, by Deep Purple. The songs in which this problem occurs are “Come On” (15:13) and Space Truckin (19:40) and a couple of other discs as well.
This computer is new, it’s a laptop HP that I bought 3 months ago.
How can I fix this problem?
Well how do you reduce the read process of the disc, then ?
I use Winamp. It’s no good, because when I choose to rip up to 0.5x or even 2x, it still rips with a speed of 23x or 24x. How did you solve it ? Using which softwares or programs to rip?

I think the file you are trying to rip is corrupt.
I’ve had this problem in the past. it may be due to the length of the songs.
Try using a slower Read/Write speed for the CD Drive and see if that helps.
EDIT: Changing the speed would depend on what program you are using. However, if would most likely be under Preferences or something similar, and then into the options for CD copying. E.g. Rip Options, or something along those lines
I’ve never used ‘Winamp’, I always use either itunes or Windows Media Player when ripping music. If it don’t work on these, then it may be that your CD Drive doesn’t support the length of the song.
However, my current laptop is also HP and haven’t had any problems when copying my songs into itunes on this laptop.
