I created a presentation in PowerPoint 2003 with music as part of the
presentation. It played on my computer just fine but on any other computer I
put it in there was no music

More than likely the type of music you used was not embedded, but linked and
did not travel to the other computer. the only music files that get embedded
are .WAV files. All others are linked.
