Slideshows: No Sound (Machine Specific)

I've created a couple of slideshows in XatShow 5.02 that behave
differently on different PC's.

On some PC's I get pictures and background music, as expected.
Picture timing is evenly spaced to match music length.
On other PC's I get pictures with no background music that transition
much more quickly.
These results come from the same CD-R.

Example of PC that shows slideshow with sound: SuperMicro S2DGR
w/Pentium Xeon 400Mhz and SoundBlaster 128, running Windows NT 4.0
Server and using DVD ROM drive.

Example of PC that shows pictures, only: Toshiba Tecra T8000 notebook
with 333Mhz Pentium III, running Windows 2000 Professional and using
CD ROM drive.

Both PC's have audio turned up such that other sound-producing
applications are audible.

Any possible reasons for this discrepancy? Anything I can do to
ensure that my slideshows play with sound and proper timing on all
PC's?

Thanks!

Are you using an MP3?

Does WAV work?

Also what version of media player does the 2000 machine have?

Chris.

I have the same issue running Windows 2000 professional, no sound and
sometimes it locks up my pc when trying to run the slideshow. I am using
mp3 and windows media player 9.

thanks
