Visit
http://www.pptools.com/fixlinks/ and download the free demo.
It'll give you a report on all the linked pictures, movies, sounds etc. in the file.
The paid for version will let you locate and relink the files, but the site also
includes some tips on doing this manually. For a wad of presentations, the add-in's
going to save you lots of time. For just one or two shows, I'd just go the manual
route.
