Powerpoint viewer, Powerpoint 2000, and XP

When I run a show made with PP2000 using PPViewer 97 on an
XP system I get unpredictable results - text boxes and
objects - not linked - are missing. Is there a problem
running such a combination on XP?

Sonia, the problem is somewhat random. The same slide can
exhibit different symptoms each time you run it. I copied
the presentation to a HD and still had problems. I can
deal with the hardware problems - drivers et al. How
likely is it that there is a problem with the presentation
itself if it runs fin on 98 and 2K systems?

I would try running it in Safe Mode to see whether all components show up
consistently. If they do then the finger points to the video driver. If
you don't want to bother with that, then just go directly to the website of
the video card manufacturer and grab the lates version of the driver for Win
XP. If it's a laptop, go to the website of the laptop manufacturer, NOT the
video card manufacturer. Also make sure that you have DirectX V.9
installed. Go to Start > Run, type DXDIAG, click OK, the version will be
displayed.
