I had to replace that machine. Maybe you have something better (Dell had 486s) but no details so I'm only guessing your machine could be a 486, have spyware or an incorrect driver.
For example a neighbor let Microsoft install a new audio driver. Bad move.

I am using Proshow Gold and have it installed in all of my three computers. Having trouble with one of the computers though. When I play back in full screen no matter what soundtrack I use it drags or jumps my music around. if I playback in preview/small screen it is fine. If I playback via cd on my tv it plays without dragging. I sent photoshow gold support a request to help but they told me to check directx and audio,video for lastest versions. checked them and they are the lastest versions. Have a dell, enough memory, and running xp home. any suggestions?
Thank You,
Daisy
