MORE INFORMATION

The following information is from the README.TXT file included with Bookshelf
1994:

  When Bookshelf is installed on a machine running Windows NT 3.1, you may not
  hear audio clips, such as pronunciations, in Bookshelf. Windows NT 3.1 cannot
  play audio in the format that Bookshelf uses.
