Is it possible to change the slide show default speed? It runs at about 6 seconds now and I'd like to cut that to 2-3 seconds. -- edcm ------------------------------------------------------------------------ edcm's Profile: http://forums.techarena.in/members/edcm.htm View this thread: http://forums.techarena.in/customize-xp/1063129.htm http://forums.techarena.in

You can use Tweak UI or a registry file I created for you.
Using Tweak UI 1. Download and install Tweak UI: http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/d...powertoys.mspx 2. Open Tweak UI and expand "Explorer". 3. Select "Slide Show" and adjust the time accordingly. 4. Apply, OK. Using a Registry File (Sets the time to 2.5 seconds) 1. Copy below and paste into Notepad. ----------copy inside only---------- Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Curre ntVersion\Explorer\ShellImageView] "Timeout"=dword:000009c4 ----------copy inside only---------- 2. Save-as SlideShow_Time=2.5.reg (or any name + .reg) 3. Double-click or right-click and merge into the registry. ju.c "edcm" wrote in message ... Is it possible to change the slide show default speed?

For that reason, and its issues with which directory to use in certain circumstances, I tend to shy away from the My Pictures Slide Show screensaver and use freeware instead.

edcm,
The easiest way to accomplish what you want to do, is to first download the power toys program TweakUI for XP. http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/d...powertoys.mspx Once the program is installed: Control Panel TweakUI Scroll down to Explorer Slide Show Set transition speed to 2000 to 3000 ms, or other rate that you desire. -- Add MS to your News Reader: news://msnews.microsoft.com Rich/rerat (RRR News) message rule Previous Text Snipped to Save Bandwidth When Appropriate ""edcm" wrote in message ...

Still, at least it got "edcm" an answer!
