My video clip will play, but won't show...

[Amanda]

Hi Everyone,

I have inserted a .WMV file into my powerpoint presentation. It will play,
but no sound or picture will appear. I know it's playing because the timer
shows that it is.

Any thoughts or suggestions on how to fix this?

Thanks,
Amanda

Hi Amanda

This is the pace to start for all your video woes:

The first thing I would try:
1. Create a folder directly on your C drive (e.g. C:\test)
2. Move ppt & wmv to new folder
3. Delete wmv from ppt and re-insert
4. Sit back & cross my fingers
