NEED HELP WITH POWERPOINT

[LIVINMT]

I have a new Dell Vostro 1700 with Windows XP Pro, 3gig of memory & 320 Gig
Hard Drive so I am reasonably sure the computer is not the problem. I want to
extend my windows desktop to a second monitor from my laptop so I have a
bigger screen. I want to work on my laptop while the PowerPoint is running on
the second monitor. Right now when I try to do that, the presentation stops.
I am relatively new to using PowerPoint and expect there is a setting
somewhere that will fix the problem, if I knew where to find it. If you can
help me, I will be very grateful!

Try slide show > set up show > browed by an individual (window)
drag the window to the second screen and resize it as large as possible
