I'm running PP 2002 (XP) on a Windows XP machine. When I try to insert a
video clip (.mpg, .avi, etc.) using Insert: Movie and Sound: Movie from File
or from the new slide template, once I select the file the following happens:
The Power Point window starts to blink, a green box appears to the top left
of the screen (which permeates all windows) and Power Point locks up on an
hourglass. I have to use the task manager to close.
I have tried to update Office as much as I can, but still have this problem
when inserting clips. Incidentally, I have no problem playing clips in other
presentations supplied to me.
