Why won't my videos run on my secondary monitor?

[Guest]

When I insert a movie (WMV) into powerpoint it will video will not play when
I use the secondary monitor. The audio is there, but not the video. When I
run it in Ppt viewer it is the same thing. When I run it on the primary
monitor it is okay. If I move my PowerPoint screen over to the secondary
monitor and run try to run the video by clicking the "Play" in the "Custom
Animation" frame I get the same results, audio but no video. WHY!!

I would start by making sure I had the latest version of graphics card driver
Then in Slide show > set up show try unticking"use hardware graphics
accelleration"
--

Did that answer the question / help?

Hi John, This issue is on two computers. The hardware graphics
accelleration box is unticked but the problem still exists. I thought maybe
it was because I had mixed monitors, that one is DVI and the other analog,
but I put both analog and the problem is still there. So I am still stumped
