Video stops during .mpg playback in powerpoint presentation
I do presentations on powerpoint and have inserted .mpg files as slides with
automatic start. However, sometimes the video "blacks out" and audio continues with video giving no blinking "warning" and audio does not skip. I have a gig of ram and a sony vaio fs480 (latest video card driver) about a year old with windows xp sp2. I have done many presentations like this before and all of a sudden this is happening. any help is greatly appreciated i have a presentation coming up soon... thanks a frustrated buddy. |

Video stops during .mpg playback in powerpoint presentation
Thanks for the suggestion, I've tried this and I've gotten it to work during
a practice run. However, WHY do I need to do it now and not before? Is my video card going out? Spyware? (i did a full norton virus scan and found nothing) dying Ram? Any other ideas?
