AVI Movie won't play in powerpoint

[kyxinitup]

I have an AVI movie that plays with only a black screen and sound when
inserted into power point. When played separately it plays fine. Anybody know
how to fix this?

First thing to try would be delete it, put it in the same folder as the saved
presentation (make this a folder with a short path ideally C:\ppts or
similar) and then re insert.

Does it play now?

No it didn't help, I get the first opening scene and then after that it blacks out, and only gives me sound.
