Well, jsut downloaded a Rpg Maker 2000 game (Dhux's Scar) but it doesnt have music. The sound effect works fine thought. I am using Windows 7. Any diea of whats the problem?
Music won't play for me sometimes when the songs are MIDIs, regardless of the engine (2k, 2k3, XP or VX).
I fix this by opening one of the game's MIDIs in Windows Media Player and clicking stop, but keep WMP open and loaded with the song. I then restart the game and the music now plays.
There surely is a better way but this works for me.

This sounds like your Midi Drivers aren't being initialized, and RM* isn't doing it for you. I'd look into matching your soundcard and operating system and seeing if there are any updated drivers, or support topics online regarding it.
I can totally see why new PCs might decide not to initialize midi drivers since midi is barely used anymore, but it should be something you can change.
Music is in mp3 btw, midis works fine (i can hear the tittle screen music (MIDI) but i cant hear the battle music (Mp3))
the answer is: Windows Media Player is retarded.
When you open up a midi in it it plays fine, but if you stop or pause the midi, it resets the volume of the SW Synth to 0/zero/mute!!. And it stays that way even if you close WMP.
Before you start your game, open up your Volume Control, find the SW Synth slider and slide it up to increase the volume from 0.
