specs. 1.6ghz Pent4, 256mb ddr, 40gigs

ok. what i'm doing is linking music .wav files to powerpoint (about five + the content of hte presentation). the problem is i only have 2 slides done which include the linked music and the file is already 100megs large! and when i try saving at that point, it freezes mycomputer prompting a msg saying not enough available virtual memory.

-why would the presentation file be so huge if under options i made sure that any links of sounds over 200kb would be externally linked?

-is there any other file format i can convert the music files to that powerpoint would accept (if so, what program do i use?) do reduce the music size?

thanks all in advance!!
