I'm working with PPT 2000 and all of a sudden, it takes an
extremely long time to open files. Also, if a slide has a
chart on it, it takes an extremely long time to load the
slide. I have 256 RAM and my virtual memory is fine.
This happens with all files and is even happening on a
couple other computers with Office 2000 in the office (but
not all).

Help!
