Distorted Sound

 

DISTORTED SOUND - I Love Phonics, Oz The Magical Adventure, and Brain Buster Quiz only

   This has to do with Quicktime which runs the Video and Animation for the program

All we need to do is change a couple of settings in the Quicktime program and it should solve the problem.

To do this:

Click on Start

Go to Settings

Click on Control Panel

Look for and Double Click on the Quicktime Icon (you may have more than

one icon for Quicktime,  but we are looking for the icon with the Blue Q)

In the window that appears it will say About Quicktime with a drop down arrow -

Click on the drop down arrow

Select Sound Out from the menu that appears

Click on the drop down arrow next to Direct Sound and select Wave Out

(if you have more than one option for wave out you will want to select

wave out- (the name of your sound card))

Click on the drop down arrow for Rate: and select 22.050 KHz

Click on the drop down arrow at the top of the window next to Sound Out and

select Video Settings

Change the selected item from Options to Safe Mode (GDI Only)

Now that you have made these changes Oz the Magical Adventure should run without a problem.
