chipmunks

My kids were playing on the computer this morning and now all my music sounds
like its being sung by Alvin & the Chipmunks. The speed of the actual song is
normal, only the voices are messed up. I tried restoring all defaults on all
sound options but nothing seems to help. Any ideas appreciated, thanks.

Try: view/enhancements/play speed settings

I am having the same problem, but fixing the play speed settings isn't
helping. It is just the voices that sound like chipmunks the music speed is
fine.
Any other suggestions??

Assuming we refer to the Windows Media Player:

There might be a plug-in installed that does transpose the pitch but does
not alter the playing time.
So have a look at Tools | Options | Plug-ins (or Tools | Plug-ins |
Options).
I would pay attention to the Audio DSP category.

The "Play Speed Settings" should not be any help at al, actually.
