I have no idea what you are saying.  Try explaining your problem again in clear language.

I think you are trying to say, that the tracks of a selected album are not being played but skipped skipped until reaching the end of the dynamic playlist, right?

There might be a problem with your files (e.g. file format...)

What files are you trying to play?

[evilnick]

I'm guessing that the CD was ripped using Windows Media Player which IIRC adds DRM to the .wma files by default.

You should answer his question so that he can help you

I'm trying to answer the best way i can I'm just trying to play a music file that was downloaded in mp3 format from windows media player

[saratoga]

OK so its an mp3 file. If you browse to that file on the player from your PC, does it play?

[kingpron]

on another note i just want to say thank you to all of the people behind rockbox even tho i cant use it at the moment everything it can do is a dream come true for me. i love music i have thousands of CD's and having an equalizer like the one in rockbox is just awesome it is going to lend well to the pocket amp i use for my headphones. also being a controle freak i am able to controle just about anything i want on my iPod  this has made it my favorite toy thank you again for this wonderful thing called rockbox

yes

What is the full filename, including extension?

[kingpron]

i think this is what you mean      C:\Documents and Settings\HP_Administrator\My Documents\My Music\Stone Sour

[saratoga]

i think this is what you mean      C:\Documents and Settings\HP_Administrator\My Documents\My Music\Stone Sour

Thats a folder on your computer, not the name of the file on your MP3 player.  Find the file on your MP3 player and copy the entire file name including the extension.

[kingpron]

i have it set to
show file name extensions
i go to the music folder select a band "stone sour" for example
it just comes up like it should with the song title.mp3
properties will not open as well as many other things /games/applications/demos
should i just star over and unistall everything? if so what would be the best way to reinstall everything
this is what is on  there at the moment emCORE vo.2.3 r859   rockbox r31516-120101 
thank you

Use sentences and periods.

rockbox r31516-120101 

Thats a build from January 1, 2012.  Update your build to something from this year.  Maybe that will fix it, I'm not sure.
