Wow, Alexander, that's so awesome you found a solution! And thank you so
much for posting it -- I'm sure it will help someone else down the road. -- Echo [MS PPT MVP] http://www.echosvoice.com What's new in PPT 2007? http://www.echosvoice.com/2007.htm Fixing PowerPoint Annoyances http://tinyurl.com/36grcd PowerPoint 2007 Complete Makeover Kit http://tinyurl.com/32a7nx "Alexander" wrote in message ... Guys... I want to thank you.... I'm writing this because a found a solution!! The problem seems to be on the processor (CPU) which is a Pentium 4 3GH with Hyperthreading technology. Well I just disabled Hyperthreading and... thats it. No more crashes!!! It might be a problem on the CPU architecture... But it does the same on my Core 2 duo CPU (A lot harder of course)... so... I don't think so. Maybe its a programming problem on multi threaded code of PowerPoint. Nevertheless, the solution to whomever has this problem is to check multi CPU functions and disable Hyperthreading if neccessary. Yours Alexander "Echo S" wrote: I understand. I would be, too.

There is one problem though. In newer CPUs, although its much harder to
reproduce the crash, you can. The idea to remove the dual core capability is not the best. How can we communicate the problem to someone who can fix this? It must be something to the multi-threading code. Alexander "Lucy Thomson" wrote: Good detective work!
