Trouble reading PPT presentation

[Confused Administrator]

I finished my presentation Thursday morning for our school on my XP laptop.
When we couldn't connect my laptop to the INFOCUS system for the ceremony, we
tried using one of our school's MAC notebooks with Keynote instead to read
the file. It worked fine before doing this. It is saved on my SanDisk Cruzer
flash drive, not on my laptop (my mistake, idiot me), as I didn't think I
needed to save it on the computer since it was backed up onto the cruzer.

We had to use Keynotes to adjust a couple of the slides' text boxes, as
Keynotes doesn't display the same way as PowerPoint, but I didn't think that
it was saved back onto the cruzer, just on the Mac's desktop.

Now, my PPT 2003 won't read the file. Is there any way to recover the file
on PowerPoint 2003? I need it back. It would take forever to try to recreate
that presentation, as it was 75 slides (took me a week) and 11 minutes long
(5-song mix that took me 2-3 days to complete). I have 2 parents that want
copies of the presentation, as their kids were in the graduating classes
featured in the presentation.

I need to get that file back quickly... HELP!!!!!
