PowerPoint 2003 Movie Problems

[K.A. Marucchi]

Hello,

I have added meny mpegs to Powerpoint XP with relitivly
no probilems. I have just installed Powerpoint 2003(with
ALL updates).

With ether NEW files or any of my old files that worked
fine on this PC before the upgrade, (and still work fine
on other PC's without PP 2003) In a slide show, the video
is black and only the first 3-5 seconds of sound plays
before it stops.

Dose anyone know why? Do i need to go back to XP(PP 2002)?

After Hours of troubleshooting, it seems that the
probilem is any(microsoft built-in or Nvidia site) Nvidia
driver, the only way to see the movies in PPT is to make
the video driver a standard Microsoft VGA, but the XP OS
automaticly re-installes the microstoft Nvidia drivers on
the next re-start, making the probilem come back.

Anyone know if they are working on this?
