Default My slides are blank during the slide show

I am running PP 2003 and have a picture heavy presentation. When I open the
file and let all the pictures load, then start the slide show I loss some
picture at the end and the slide is blank. How do I fix this problem?

Hi Sue

What size is the file? I would probably start by compressing the pictures as
they are probably bigger than they need to be (double click a picture -
picture tab - compress - apply to all pictures in document - ok). Do this
on a copy of your ppt in case you don't like the result :-) Oh and make sure
you have fast saves turned off (tools - options - save - untick allow fast
saves).

If that doesn't help try this:
How to set graphics hardware acceleration back
http://www.pptfaq.com/FAQ00129.htm

If that does't help come back to us telling us how you added the pictures.

Default My slides are blank during the slide show

I have 2 PowerPoints hyperlinked to a PowerPoint menu. The combined size of
the Powerpoints is 290 MB with about 200 slides. After about 140 slides, the
slides are blank. I am now running Windows 7 and PP 2003. All of these
presentations ran in full with XP. I turned off the fast save and visited the
website on hardware acceleration, but there were no directions for Windows 7.
Does anyone have any suggestions?

I would try reducing the size of your files:
Why are my PowerPoint files so big? What can I do about it?
http://www.pptfaq.com/FAQ00062.htm

Also, update your graphics card driver.

Hi

On the Intel support website there is a tool that will scan your system and
let you know if there are new drivers:
http://downloadcenter.intel.com/defa...+dnlds_drivers
(see big banner at top of page).

I'm sure it will then walk you through the process if it finds anything. I
would still reduce the size of the file though...
