Hi everyone!  
Windows7  
Psychopy standalone 1.85.3  
I have an audio loop that have two parameters and 13 conditions in builder view. When I run the program I get this error:

I rewrote the program again and again, upgraded my Psychopy, tried PySoundCard and also reduced size of wav files I was using by converting them to ogg but none of them worked.  
This is the excel file:[Sounds.xlsx](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex002/uploads/psychopy/original/2X/0/0a0c50997a645c68b25ef13c7bdff8f29cd6eee2.xlsx) (9.0 KB)  
Other things like text or image work fine.

Thanks for your help

I ran my program with another PC and it worked.  
Thanks.
