    Hi, Hope some one can help me with this:
    Have made up a powerpoint slide show and added music to it and it works OK on my PC. but transfer it to another PC and the music won "t play. the music is on the stick/Disc as the file is the same size.
    I burnt it onto a disc in the 2nd PC and no sound but it will play sound when it is back in the PC that it was created on.
    It tells me the file ( in Properties) that it is a Read Only and it wont let you change that setting , it say's that it is protected. also it said that Media Player can,t play this file.
    Have tried several players but still the same.
    I didn't see any choices ( read only, archive )when I went to add the music . it has taken weeks to get the music to match the story , so any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks Des.:(:(

    Hi ,Thanks Mike , that looks like just the info I was after, it took a while to find the Make a CD link but it has fixed one presentation but the other one still won't let me do it , it keeps telling me that Media player can't recognise the music, they are all in WAV. form .
    I will try and make a file just of the music ( it has been matched to specific slides) and then add it, at the Make a CD point and see how we go. Thanks again Des.
