Ever since I've inserted new .wmv files in my powerpoint presentations. powerpoint has been screwed up. Either the videos show up as red x's and/or the command buttons don't work and I need to use the menu command also the slide will not advance without forcing it out of presentation mode. This is occurring on more than one file and more than one machine. There are no viruses and we are running Windows 2000. Thanks.

If you inserted videos and sounds in your PP presentation and move it to another place or PC, you have to make correctio to all links and re-check timing and configuration of all animation, because Power Point run at not real time and configuration you made in one PC change for another. Also, links change when you copy your presentation from one PC to another, that's why in place of video, show a big red X and not sound. Hope this help.
