What format are these trax ?
I'm assuming they're tracker modules, eg IT MOD S3M XM etc ?!?!
Where did you get them from [TraxInSpace ?] & are you sure they are proper modules [eg. the files WINOA386.MOD & REDIRECT.MOD in the Windows System folder are not valid tracker modules].

If you're positive that they are proper tracker modules, then there's a few things you can try:
1. Goto Winamp Prefs -> Input -> NS Module Decoder -> Configure
Check that the settings under both tabs are compatible with your system.
2. Download PP's alternative MOD plug-in & use that instead of the default one.
3. Play your tracker modules with ModPlug Player instead of Winamp.
4. Get a better soundcard or update your current drivers.
5. Download some MP3's !
