Presentation locks up when viewing

[Guest]

I have MS PowerPoint 2003 and created a presentation and burned it to CD.
When I go to try to view the presentation from the disc, it locks up on the
3rd screen or so. I tried it on another PC, but the same thing happened on
the same screen. I have to ctl-alt-del to shut the program down 'cause it's
not responding. Does anyone have any thoughts on what might be causing this?

EarthDaughter,

Does anyone have any thoughts on what might be causing this?

Something on your 3rd slide maybe?
Does it have sound or video on that slide - or use an unusual font?

Does it view ok from your hard drive? (before it's put on the cd)

If you delete the 3rd slide, create a cd-rw (as a test disk) does that work?

Cheers
