Picture not showing up in PowerPoint

T

Thurman

I have pasted a bunch of picture into a power point document and they aren’t
showing up on my computer anymore. They do show up in the preview pane
though. I’m using PowerPoint 2002.

I tried opening the file on another computer and it worked for them. Any
ideas?

Thanks you advance for your help.

Any more idea?

Well, since the images are showing up in the preview pane, it really points
to a display issue. So I'd try updating video drivers now. Also check your
display settings and see what color depth you're running at. Changing it may
help as well, you never know.

Also, if by chance you're using PPT 2003 and not 2002, make sure SP-1 for
Office 2003 is installed. You can get to it from Help/Check for Updates.

In future, I'd recommend that you not paste images into PPT files -- but
because it can make your file size very large, not because it would make the
images not show up. See Why are my PowerPoint files so big? What can I do
about it? http://www.rdpslides.com/pptfaq/FAQ00062.htm for specifics.

The files are only about 7MB. So they aren't that big at all.

But It seems to be fixxed. I changed the hardware acceleration to "None"
and removed alot of spyware. That could have been slowing down the system.

And I recently updated the video drivers. Also I am running PowerPoint 2002
and I ran all the updates on the office update site.

Thanks Again for your help.

The file or the photo?

That's fine for a Ppt file, but rather large for a photo that you want to
display on a slide.
