MS Office Forum / General PowerPoint Questions / September 2006So there I was, 5 minutes before the presentation...
My cousin scanned a bunch of old photos in order to make a powerpoint slideshow for our grandpa's 80th birthday. All the pictures looked fine in the Power Point design mode, however, when I pressed F5 to start the show, none of the pictures showed up. Of course, we discovered this 5 minutes before my cousin was supposed to the slide show. It doesn't matter now, since I exported the whole thing via "Save for Web..." and displayed the whole thing in Internet Explorer (without the transitions of course). But I am curious why it didn't work (since my grandma's 80th is coming up). Regards I would suspect you need to update your video card driver.

It was tried yesterday on 2 different laptops and today, it was tried on a 3rd laptop at work. Same result.

I've tried disabling the hardware accelleration and my drivers are updated, but no luck. I think you had a conversation regarding a similar problem in 2001 with a different person: http://tinyurl.com/kr5jg or http://groups.google.com/group/microsoft.public.powerpoint/browse_thread/thread/ 6d75e636a1e5ed56/2557dc956b942450%232557dc956b942450 The thing in common with that case is the HP scanner. Was there ever a resolution to that problem?

I sure would like to see what is happening with it.
