I have a problem with audacity. When I load an audio file, the program loads only 1 or 2 seconds but it doesn't load the first 1 or 2 second of the audio file.

Make sure you have FFmpeg from http://manual.audacityteam.org/index.php?title=FAQ:Installation_and_Plug-Ins#ffdown and installed correctly into C:Program FilesFFmpeg for Audacity.
