TROUBLE SHOOTING AUDIO BIBLE |
Q.
When I double-click
on a Audio Link the Audio Player comes up and the Slider Control moves
slowly from left to right but I don't hear any sound?
A.
When you first open
Audio Bible a normal Wave file plays the introduction. If you can hear
it, your hardware should be fine. If you cannot hear it, you need to check
your volume control.
---
1. Look
for an icon of a speaker on your tool bar, in the lower left hand corner
of the screen. Double-click on the speaker icon to load the volume control.
Move the volume sliders marked WAVE and VOLUME CONTROL all the way to the
top or to a convenient listening level. Also make sure the MUTE BOXES are
not checked.
---
2. If
you don't have an icon of a speaker check your sound card manual on how
to adjust the volume.
---
3. Your
speakers or sound card may also have a volume control knob. The power button
on your speakers may be off, or the batteries may need replacing.
Q.
When I double-click on a Audio Link, the Audio
Player comes up but the Slider Control stays in one place and never moves
also I don't hear any sound?
A.
Audio Bible uses DSP Group TrueSpeech ™ technology built into Windows 95
™. When you install Windows 95 ™, sometimes the proper drivers are not
loaded. The drivers may also have become corrupted. You will need the original
Windows 95 ™ disk to install these drivers.

---
14. In
some cases if you re-install Windows
95 ™ using the custom install ,
the problem disappears. Be sure to install EVERYTHING
, all options, especially all multimedia
options and drivers. The Fax and networking
options are not necessary, but everything else is.
---
15. Check
with the manufacturer of your sound card, find out if it can play a DSP
TrueSpeech ™ file. They may have updated sound
card software drivers ,
that will play DSP TrueSpeech ™ files.
Note:
There
are some original OEM Windows 95 ™ Disks which will not allow the installation
of a generic version of Windows 95 ™. Some computer manufacturers have
modified the Windows 95 ™ installation process in such a way that the DSP
TrueSpeech ™ drivers are not loaded properly. In other cases the manufacturer
has removed the "Setup.exe" program from the Windows 95 ™ disk
and you cannot perform a custom install. We are aware of NEC ™ and Packard
Bell ™ doing this on some of their setups. There may be other manufacturers
doing the same thing. The only suggestion we have, is to check with the
manufacturer of your computer about a solution to the problem. We have
installed generic versions of Windows 95 ™ on these PC’s and have solved
the problem. If all else fails purchase a generic version of Windows 95
™ and install it on your machine.
