Audio speed too slow

Hello all.

I recorded a live gig on a laptop using an echo indigo card with Tracktion to an external hard drive, which I belive is formated to FAT32 as opposed to the laptop - a windows XP machine.

When playing back from the hardrive on the laptop everything sounds wonderful! But the time is all off - waaaay too slow - when tracks are bounced to 16 bit. Also, if the files are imported to a different hard drive, they play back at the same slowness. I can get it back on track by increasing the rate of sped the track is played back within Tracktion, which will do, I suppose. But what did I do wrong in the first place? What could it have been? The only thing I can think of is the FAT 32 format vs. NTFS. Is this the case?
 
Is it possible thaty it was recorded at 16bit 48khz and played back at 16bit 44.1khz?
 
It was recorded at 24bit, 41k and played back that way. I'm stumped. I don't see what would make this behavior possible. I was able to match the tracks to pitch by adjusting the speed control on each track in Tracktion (the whole project was recorded on a Rode stereo mic/RNP/RNC/Echo Indigo). It still sounds great, but I can't seem to figure out why this problem occured in the first place.
