What do you have the file on - a USB memory stick?

Do you mean "WAV (Microsoft) signed 16 bit PCM" ?

If you have a license for the files you may be able to create an audio CD of them with Windows Media Player, then rip that CD to the format that you require.

So are you seeing the same problem on all machines?
Where have these MP3 files come from?

Why don't you record your voice in FRAPS rather than trying to run two audio recording applications simultaneously on the same machine?
