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!!

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
