You've obviously saved the files in 32-bit (or is that CoolEdit-Code for 24-bit?) format, which neither iTunes nor WMP can open. A standard Audio CD is 16-bit/44.1 khz so you'll need to convert them. In Cooledt:
Make sure you have backups of the original files! Now, open the file, press F11. (I think that's the standard keycommand for "convert sample rate and bit depth", or whatever they call it). Set the file to be converted to - you guessed it - 16 bit, 44 khz. (There should be a preset.) Press OK, save the file - done!
If you need to do this to a lot of files there's a "Batch convert" option in the File-menu.
Good luck!

my itunes let's me use pcm waves
are you sure you can't import 16bit 44100 to itunes?
if you need help converting in cool edit to 16 44100 i'll tell you how!
If you "convert sample type" to 44.1 KHz - 16 bit Stereo - then
If you "convert sample type" to 44.1 KHz - 16 bit Stereo - then save as Windows PCM you shouldn't have any trouble with any software reading or playing the file. You won't have any format options once the file is 16 bit.
thanks a lot guys for some reason, before when i saved in mp3, w
