Default slide shows on multiple screens

Hi,

I am using powerpoint 2007.

I launched 2 slide shows on 2 different monitor, but found out that only one
remains active, the other slide show freezed.

Any idea if powerpoint 2007 could afford 2 instance of slide shows running
concurrently ? any suggestions ?

thank you very much.

You would need to use an add-in like PowerShow from
http://officeone.mvps.org/powershow/powershow.html to run multiple slide
shows simultaneously on different monitors.

If you are on Vista you can do this by running the two presentations in
windows instead of full screen. Instructions are in my old blog.

(That said, Chirag's tool is the better answer - works simply and doesn't
cost much!)
