Is there a capability somewhere in XP that can rip a music CD track (.cda )
into a .WAV file ?

I don't see such a capability in my Media Player 9 or Sound Recorder. I
have found that the Wave Studio program (aka Wave Editor) that comes with
Sound Blaster cards will install and run (with the audio hardware you find)
on most PCs. Does anyone here know of a way to rip to WAV format using
capabilities within XP or Media Player with the right plugins ?

TIA Bill S.

Not with Windows proprietary applications that comes with
Windows XP. But there are some excellent shareware that can
be downloaded, such as Exact Audio Copy (EAC) or even some
of the burning software that is supplied with CD/DVD drives.

Nope. Not natively I don't believe.

That doesn't mean you can't do it?
