I actually don't know, i've seen you have a problem with camera and voiceclips too, you added them later by editing your post, pretty much problems, it's not that simple... maybe someone else will answer..

Pcwiz91 you have posted twice so i believe this post should be closed.
This (http://www.cybertechhelp.com/forums/showthread.php?t=126400) is the other post. It's confusing having 2 posts with the same problem.
