1. Why are you using this Xtra? (it's not needed much outside of authoring)
2. Is there anything special about the .wav file? (codec, created on mac, etc.)

Short version:
sound(2).play for an external member that is a wave file causes the movie to crash both in authoring and projector under Windows XP. The same movie plays fine in authoring and projector under Windwos 2000.
Long version:
I wonder if anyone has encountered this error under Windows XP. I get it both in authoring and in projector. The same movie runs fine under Windows 2000. The error message that I see is generated by Windows. It is displayed by one of Microsoft's error report collection routines. It also compiles a report in an external txt file that Microsoft wants you to send to them. Here is the essence of it.
Error signature AppName: director.exe AppVer: 9.0.0.383 ModName: director.exe ModVer: 9.0.0.383 Offset: 00013b97
The message is a little more specific when it happens in my projector: it points to the Macromedia Sound Import Export.x32 Xtra.
Macromedia Projector Error signature: AppName: [name of my projector] AppVer: 9.0.0.383 ModName: sound import export.x32 ModVer: 9.0.0.383 Offset: 0000bf37
The actual report that would be sent to MS contains the same details about the culprit (the x32 file) plus its copyright and various other idetifying details (but nothing esle about the error itself).
The version numbers refer to Director MX that was used to create the projector and to author the movie. When the crash happens in authoring, I first see two messages from Director: "A fatal error has occurred. Director will quit now." and then "Warning! Director is completely out of memory and must exit immediately."
The crash happens when the movie issues sound(2).play for an external member that is a wave file. This is perfectly consistent in both authoring and projector. The same projector runs fine under Windows 2000.
