freezing slide

[Guest]

Help, I have a slideshow due Monday and I get to slide 12 (of 15) and it
freezes, if I right click on the page and select 'go to slide 12' it
continues but then it freezes again at slide 15. I have half a dozen pics on
each page and little text. I turned off fast saves and downloaded
http://www.rdpslides.com/pptools/FAQ00013.htm
it then played the ss but it STILL freezes at slide 12. My pics range in
size from 99kb to 727kb, I have to have this ready by Monday HELP!!!
thanks
Lisa

What's on slide 13?

Are slides 13, 14, 15 hidden?

Is the file set to play all the slides? (Check in Slide Show/Set up Show)

What kind of slide transition do you have on slide 12?

I see you downloaded the RnR Optimizer. Did you optimize those large (727kb,
for example) photos?

Which version of PPT?

How big is the PPT file (kb- or MB-wise)?

Slide 12 is the same as all the others 6 pics and 6 words it will play if you
right click the page and then select 'go to slide 12', number 13 plays fine
and then number 14 jams rignt up and you can' t see it at all, it's 2003
version and the entire show is 10mb
thanks

This is wild guess - check for any objects outside of the slide 12 frame.
PowerPoint might be trying to process something not visible on the slide.

Have you taken your presentation to another computer, and tried it there? Have
you cleaned your system recently like defrag, get rid of all the temp files etc?

The reason I was asking what's on the next slide is because PPT will
sometimes stall out when it's trying to preload a bunch of stuff on the
following slide(s).

What about all the other questions I asked? Did you check those?

I think at this point, I'd just recreate the problem slides, optimizing the
individual images as you insert them. (You are using Insert/Picture/From
File, aren't you?)
