I'm new and lost!

[Billie]

I've just purchased a Gateway lapatop with Vista program included. I'm
totally lost. I'm not sure what is included in the package that came with
the laptop. For instance, I REALLY NEED to have a slide show presentation
ready by THursday morning and I don't even know where to start. When I try
Power Point it just takes into Microsoft Word. What do I do? Thanks

First, make sure PowerPoint is installed. If it is, then right click
on the presentation and select "Open With", chose PP.
