About 18 months ago, I purchased a twin processor Dell
420, and it kept crashing with PPT. I went up to third
level tech support at Dell and since I also installed
Windows XP, I had access to and talked to third level
tech support at Microsoft. In the end, Microsoft agreed
there was a problem with PPT, that caused the computer to
crash, and that they were not goint to fix it.

Since that time I have also purchased a twin processor
Dell computer, and of course PPT keeps on crashing. I
have XP, Office XP, and slides in files which range up to
150 slides per presentation. I also have slide files
[resource files] with slides up to 500 slides.

When is Microsoft going to make a PPT system that can
handle such massive files without crashing in a 2
processor system? I am not aware of even an update or
download that has even addressed the system. Maybe you
can enlighten me.

I know large group of people who make presentations as I
do with large quantites of slides, and they seem all to
have similar problems. I have long ago stopped sending
in reports to Microsoft on those crashes. Microsoft
expressed neither interest, nor concern about the level
of crashes. I have been at it for maybe 90 minutes today
with already 5 crashes.

What is the patch which will fix my problem, and stop
giving me fits of unhappiness?
