Pause and play in .wmv playback don't work consistently

I have several slides & video clips in between.
The .wmv clips are played automatically as the slide is
clicked on, and a little hand appears on the screen.
Pause works fine when the little hand appears on the
screen. Play after pause starts the movie where the clip
left off which is fine. But sometimes when the movie plays
an arrow appears on the screen instead of the hand. Pause
works but the play plays the movie from the beginning
rather than from where it left off. This incorrect thing
happens every 8-10 times the clip is played. What am I
missing? I am using PPT 2002. These pause clips are
programmed with custom transitions....
 
You might try updating the version of Direct X on your machine.

Alternatively, you can put a button on the slide to play and pause the
movies. That might be more reliable. Holler if you want instrux.
