Power Point Viewer 2003

I have a question regarding PPV 2003. I've received a couple of
presentations
that *do have music,* - however I can't hear it. When forwarded to folks,
they are
able to hear the music. Yet, 99% of the other PP presentations that do have
music
in my system - I can hear them perfectly!
I have tried to Google downloads for update versions, and the only free
download
I could find was PP Viewer 2007 - which requires Windows 2000 SP4.
Since I'm running Win ME, I am unable to find an upgrade. Does any of you
have any ideas as of what could be wrong? Or do I have to accept the fact
that I
indeed need to 'dump' Win ME and upgrade to a more current system?
Lastly, I don't know whether this is relevant, but early this year I
installed
Open Office.org 2.4, which has the suite of programs, including
presentations.
I can't hear the music through this program either.

Any help or guidance will be appreciated.

Persistance does work! I re-installed OpenOffice.org 2.4, used the
'Impress' feature for video presentations & got the 'MUSIC.'
Any other ideas are welcome, otherwise this thread ends here.

I guess, make sure your codecs are up to snuff.
Heirloom, old and good work on getting the music
back!!
