Playing Sound

Hi, is there a way that I can play sound simply? I tried using the playsound() command and it REALLY slows down the program. I read somewhere that it''s not the best way to play bigger sound files so I looked into certain things like openal, which isn''t as easy as playsound() and things like fmod doesn''t have a tutorial even... Anyone know a way to play sound simply (like playsound()) but have it be able to run smoothly?

Lee Winder recently posted a quick guide for OpenAL here. It''s not that hard to use. Have a look here: http://www.gamedev.net/reference/articles/article2008.asp

Try Fmod again, it does have tutorials, just download the html guide and browse to the tutorials dir, it really isn''t that hard to setup to play a sound/music. :/
Ok, thanks.
