Use your original presentation that was created in PowerPoint 2000 and play it
in the PowerPoint 97 Viewer
(http://office.microsoft.com/downloads/2000/Ppview97.aspx). The PowerPoint 2003
Viewer is not needed and has a bug that prevents the sound from being played in
a presentation that was created in PowerPoint 2000 or 97. Then let us know if
there are problems.
