I have a project where I need to make a Powerpoint Slide show available to
the public on a touch screen. When no one is using it, I want the screen to
go into a Screen Saver and then Power Saver mode. The Powerpoint Slide Show
seems to keep these modes from executing. Is there an attribute or setting
in Powerpoint to allow the screen saver and Power saver option in Windows XP
to function?
Thanks, Phil

Phil,

I've no idea if it will work with powerpoint 2007, or if it is still
supported

but see

ADingOD Display Saver revives normal screen saver during PowerPoint screen
shows (it may work for other apps too). This hidden utility allows most
screensavers to work as expected while Powerpoint is running in full-screen
mode.
