I've had lots of problems with movies in powerpoint, and it sometimes works by inserting the clip in a different way. If you inserted it from the menu by "insert > movie", try dragging and dropping the filename onto a slide instead. Do this the other way round if you dragged and dropped originally.

Works for me usually

Thanks for the advice but stil no go

Maybe u can help me if i explain it a lil beta...

I set up a powerpoint show on my computer and all is fine - it works pefectly...i then want to play this show on a plamsa screen which has a hawkeye unit attached. However when I do go to play it, all the slides work fine except for the movie clips!

The Hawkeye unit im sure u know is like a lil computer in a lil black box n has powerpoint viewer installed 2 watch the shows

Y could it be that my computer plays the presentations fine but not using the unit???

Thanks again!
