Ahh... Interesting. Unfortunately, I can't even OPEN PowerPoint to a new project. :-(

For example if you have a ppt that you build yourself you should be fine, but if you insert a ppt into your ppt, then you get an error. The slides imported will not show up correctly (backgrounds and text are missing or distorted.) -----Original Message----- From: Orland, Kathleen [mailto:korl...@rogers.com] Sent: Sunday, April 17, 2011 8:26 PM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: RE: PowerPoint 2007 won't run I know there was a recent patch that caused Outlook 2007 to suffer printing problems, generating an error telling people to reinstall their printers. -----Original Message----- From: Ziots, Edward [mailto:ezi...@lifespan.org] Sent: Sunday, April 17, 2011 5:19 PM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: RE: PowerPoint 2007 won't run Possibiity you patched it for the latest Microsoft Patch?

I have tried repairing it several times, but it just won't run. It won't even run in "safe mode." I never get an error message, but after I repair it and try to launch, it pops up the splash screen then goes away. Nothing in the logs. I try to launch it again, it comes up with a message that Powerpoint failed to start properly, and do I want to start in safe mode, click yes, and nothing happens. The third time it comes up and says it failed to start in safe mode, do I want to try a repair install. Infinite loop. Now, I don't know if Powerpoint *ever* worked on this laptop. The manager got it used after the previous user left the company. I have not wiped and reinstalled as I was not sure where the reinstall media was for that laptop. :-( Any ideas? ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> ~ --- To manage subscriptions click here: http://lyris.sunbelt-software.com/read/my_forums/ or send an email to listmana...@lyris.sunbeltsoftware.com with the body: unsubscribe ntsysadmin ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> ~ --- To manage subscriptions click here: http://lyris.sunbelt-software.com/read/my_forums/ or send an email to listmana...@lyris.sunbeltsoftware.com with the body: unsubscribe ntsysadmin ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> ~ --- To manage subscriptions click here: http://lyris.sunbelt-software.com/read/my_forums/ or send an email to listmana...@lyris.sunbeltsoftware.com with the body: unsubscribe ntsysadmin ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> ~ --- To manage subscriptions click here: http://lyris.sunbelt-software.com/read/my_forums/ or send an email to listmana...@lyris.sunbeltsoftware.com with the body: unsubscribe ntsysadmin ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> ~ --- To manage subscriptions click here: http://lyris.sunbelt-software.com/read/my_forums/ or send an email to listmana...@lyris.sunbeltsoftware.com with the body: unsubscribe ntsysadmin ----- No virus found in this message.
