File too large to display photos

[RH]

I've been asked by a co-worker to create a DVD of his daughter's wedding (450
photos). I was able to add the files to the Power Point Presentation, but
I'm not able to view past slide 75. Do I need to split the pictures into
different presentation? If so, how do I convert to DVD format so they all
scroll (via dvd player, etc) at once?

You would be better to use the free program from Microsoft called Photo
story 3 which you can download from:

http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/using/digitalphotography/photostory/default.mspx

That will create a video of all the images, you can add music, etc. to the
video and then using a DVD authoring program create the DVD.

The web site I posted also has information on how to burn DVDs (look at Do
more) and the program works on Vista also.

Hope this helps, let us know.

Thank you so much. I've been working this PP all morning trying to get this
to work.

I'm guessing you've added loads of pictures straight from a digital
camera....

think mega pixels x slides = massive files = too much for powerpoint.

I'd do what LVTravel recommends.
