Default Slideshow works on desktop but not on laptop!


OK FP'ers... another slideshow dilemma!
My FP2003 works in every way on my desktop system. On my laptop, however,
when I attempt to do a slide show, after selecting images, etc. then clicking
on OK it shows the progress bar max out... then nothing happens; it just
stays maxed-out without generating my slideshow. Even the cancel button no
longer works; I can only "X" out the progress indicator. This only happens on
slideshow, not any other photo gallery type.
I've tried everything from repairing FP to uninstalling and re-installing
(complete install) to no avail. This is the exact same copy of FP as on my
desktop (I have 5 licenses) as well as the same OS, etc.
Could there be a configuration difference I'm unaware of? Or some other
hardware or software interfering with FP?
Thanks for your input.

Are your slideshow images imported / contained within your web??
Everything your web uses needs to be "inside" of the web.

Yes... everything is contained in the web.
When I put the page I was working on with my laptop onto my desktop computer
I had no trouble inserting the slideshow. It only seems to be my laptop that
has the problem. Since I do a lot of work on my laptop this is disconcerting.
