Power Point 2003 not working

[IMunknowing]

I have installed Microsoft Office 2003. Everything works except Power
Point. Power Point will not open at all. I have tried uninstalling and then
installing again. Still the problem exists. Any ideas?

Which version of Office did you buy? Not all versions of Office 2003
include PowerPoint. Check out:

Where's PowerPoint?

If PowerPoint opens, then go to the Help menu and choose Check for
Updates. Follow the instructions to apply Service Pack 1. Let us know if
that solves your problem.

Thanks again.

I've tried that and it still won't run slide shows. Another note. When you
double click on a .pps file, Power point opens "minimized". And clicking on
the minimized block on the bottom does nothing. You have to Ctrl Alt Delete
and close to quit Power Point.

Thanks again for your help. I'll try again this weekend.

Thanks Steve. That fixed it. I hope others can benefit from this. I've
been trying to figure this out for months and now it works.

Thanks again. This is great!!!
