Powerpoint and Videos

[The New Guy]

I tried putting in video clips for a presentation (all
the clips were in wmv format). The video played fine, but
i can't hear any audio. I can play it in Windows Media
Player just fine. And yes, my speakers work fine. How do
I solve this?

Try lowering Hardware acceleration. Also update DirectX if you don't have
version 9.0b. You can tell what version you have by going to Start > Run
and typing dxdiag.

Didn't work. By the way, i have an ATI Radeon 9800 Pro,
Pent. 4 2.6 GHZ, the latest version of Windows Media
Player, WINXP, and a Creative Sound Blaster Audigy 2
Sound Card. Hope that information makes things easier.

I mis-read your original post and for some reason thought the problem was
with the video. There is a new driver available for your sound card. I
would start by installing it. See http://us.creative.com/support/downloads/
and enter your product. The driver is dated 3/29/04.
