Hello,
Can anyone help with this please? I have a Dell Latitude D410 running
Windows XP Pro Sp2 with all Windows updates installed. The version of Office
is Office XP which is 2002. I have been to the Update Office website and
installed all the available updates for Office.
Heres my problem.
I have a short mpg file (only 412 KB) which i am trying to play in
Powerpoint 2002. I am using the method Insert > Movies and Sounds > Movie
from File. I can browse to the file and select it but when Powerpoint
attempts to add it it displays garbage instead.
The file plays perfectly in Media Player on the same laptop. It also plays
perfectly if i play it using mplay32.exe on the same laptop. In addition it
also plays perfectly within Powerpoint on several pc's running Windows XP
Pro Sp2 which have Office 2000 installed, not 2002 so this seems to be a
Powerpoint 2002 problem and not a codec or graphic card driver issue (i
would guess.....).
Has anyone seen this behaviour before and if so can anyone suggest a
solution? I'd be most gratefull for any help.
Many thanks,
Steve.
