cannot play wave file

When I go to import a 24 bit wave file and I try to play it before I import it I get a message "cannot play wave file". It only happens with 24 bit files. 16 bit files play just fine.
My sound card is set for 24 bit. I can play the same 24 bit wave files with windows media player or any other program I have installed. Any suggestions?

    Really? My Windows Media Player can only play 16 bit. I don't know of any regular players that can play anything else, including Pyro.

    Nero Showtime, the player the comes bundled with Nero, can play 24-bit files.


    All else is in doubt, so this is the truth I cling to.
