Hi,
When I run a powerpoint show the screen on each side of the slides is black,
is there any way I can change this to another color?, I really need it to be
white.
Thanks

Are you running a standard PowerPoint presentation on a wide screen monitor?

When your in slideshow mode, the presentation should fill your screen. You might check in Slide show setup that it is set to presented by speaker. Which version of PowerPoint are you using?

If your PPT page does not fit the screen shape, the 'empty' areas will always be black. However there are other complications. Your display may be switched to the wrong size. And your VGA output may only support 4:3 regardless of your settings; try using your DVI output if you have one.
