Burned music CD has no sound.

Today I tried to burn my first music CD using Vista and Media Player. I
used the MP3's that I've ripped from my personal CD collection to my computer
using my old XP machine. All of which play fine on media player.

When I popped the newly created CD into my trucks player, it only read one
track, and had no sound. Once I got to work, I tried it on my laptop, an XP
machine, which also has MP 11. Here it not only plays, but it also somehow
knows the titles of the songs on the CD, even though there is no internet
connection available to it.

My question is, does WMP 11 do something to prevent regular players from
being able to play burned CDs, or is there something else. My thought is
that the format of the newly burned CD is not standard, which is why XP knows
the titles of the songs.

This is my first attempt, as I said, and I've not yet purchased new burning
software for the Vista box, but will do so if I have to. Unfortunately, my
older software was tied to my XP box and won't transfer, or just won't work
(Older versions of Nero).
