Re: Sound help needed.

I converted it in wavepad, it's a free app that does everything I need (not
that I need much when it comes to sounds), but here's what I will do next: I
will go ahead and edit the sound file again, save it as wav, embed it again
(it's smaller than 50 mb) then save my pps once more and see if it works.
I'll let you know

And again, thanks for your response.
