Memory/CPU Leak

[Luigi]

Hi,

I've a Dell computer with Win2k pro SP3 + Office 2000 SP3.
When I work with powerpoint presentations I often have
problems with powerpoint. It hangs and in device manager
it shows 100% cpu utilization for powerpoint, normally it
is also using a lot of memory 50-80Mb for a 250k
presentation. It already starts with 12MB usage and keeps
growing until it hangs. The presentations have less than
10 slides and are not complex normally they all have less
than 350kb and any presentation can have this issue, not
specific ones. How can I troubleshoot this?

Thanks

Luigi

Hi Luigi,

Try checking out this site:

http://www.rdpslides.com/pptfaq/
And start with the section on Before You Use PowerPoint

Should help, my PC is the same setup as yours and I create
very large and complex presentations without any problems.

HTH,

P.S. I bet you get teased a lot about the Mario brothers,
don't you?
