Hi Ben,
Thank you for your response. The volume on WMP is at a good level since I listen to mp3's almost every night WMP will play a lot of formats without a hitch.
I have an HP Pavilion PC and the sound is integrated on the MB.
When I play the GR files they show the same playing length in GR or WMP.
Also, this word processor leaves a lot to be desired. I must type very slow because it can't keep up; letters sometimes don't appear on screen and I must retype several times.
Thanks,
Toronaga
