MS Office Forum / General PowerPoint Questions / June 2006why my computer shut down if run powerpoint slide show?
why my computer shut down if run powerpoint slide show? No idea. You need to give us a lot more information about your computer and what steps you take and what happens then. Random guess: your laptop ran out of battery? Patrick Schmid -------------- http://pschmid.net > why my computer shut down if run powerpoint slide show? No, I don't use laptop, I use desktop PC IBM Think Center A50, with Intel 82865G Graphic Controller and I already update the display driver with new version. The steps is when I press F5 to slide show mode, the monitor turn off and the indicator lamp goes yellow. > No idea.

Do a detect and repair if that is available for your version of PowerPoint. What happens when you press F5 in any other program?

I'd back the hardware acceleration down and see if that helps. How to set graphics hardware acceleration back http://www.pptfaq.com/FAQ00129.htm I'd also boot Windows into Safe Mode and see what happens there if I run the presentation. It will be ugly, but it's a good test to see if it's really the video drivers. (If it runs in Safe Mode, it's often an indication that you need updated video drivers. Or it could be pointing to a conflict with other software running in the background on a regular, non-safe-mode, boot.) Oooooh, and you know, I think we saw this problem once with spontaneous reboots and it turned out to be bad RAM. Hang on... Yeah, bad RAM or perhaps need for a BIOS upgrade. http://tinyurl.com/jkcxu SignatureEcho [MS PPT MVP] http://www.echosvoice.com What's new in PPT 2007? http://www.echosvoice.com/2007.htm Fixing PowerPoint Annoyances http://www.oreilly.com/catalog/powerpointannoy/ PPTLive!

In addition to what everyone else suggested, what happens when you open PPT and press F5 with the default blank slide there? The computer itself turns completely off when this happens?
