Powerpoint slide show doesn't run

[Tim H.]

I am using MS office XP, and using window XP as well.
The powerpoint was running pretty well untill one day I
can only open a powerpoint file, but not be able to run
the slide show. I tried to reinstal it, and tried to
repaired it, but the problem is still there. I am really
frustrated about it. Someone please help me out. Thanks!

Go to Slide Show > Set up Show. Is it by any chance set to run on the
secondary monitor? Try changing that to Primary Monitor and see if that
helps.

I'm glad you're happy! LOL! The Slide Show was alive all the time. It's
just that you were displaying it on an imaginary monitor. :>)) The
secondary monitor doesn't exist if you only have one monitor.
