I purchased an educational CD from my school which plays video clips through
a power point format. I can open the CD and the menu, but when I try to play
any of the clips I get a pop-up message saying my windows power point viewer
has a problem with the program. it is a brand new computer and plus I
downloaded the provided powerpoint viewer application from the CD just in
case, but i still can't get it to play. I talked with my instructors whom
made these CD's and I was given this website to find a way to fix it.

Your instructors made the CD and sold it to you and are shoving you off here
for tech support when their product doesn't work? Shame on them. That's
cheesy.

But putting that aside, let's poke at the problem some:

What's the *exact* text of the pop-up message you get?

Does it also say something in the title bar of the popup? If so, what?
Usually it identifies the program that's doing the complaining.

When you talk about playing the clips, is this something you do from within a
PPT presentation you're already viewing or something else?

Remember, we can see what you're doing. You have to be our eyes.

Yeah, that's what I was trying to say when I said I'd ask for my money back.
