I really want to be able to play extracts of video
through powerpoint presentations. I have beeen able to
import video into my home desktop, a sony with the
gigapocket programme. This play very well on the home
machine, however when I copy it to CD and try to play the
PP on another machine, particularly a Dell laptop, it
won't work.
I have copied over all the support files. The video plays
happily through media player but will not allow itself to
be inserted into the PP. I get a black square which will
not run.
The video is an MPEG. It plays in quicktime and in real
one.
I have increased the memmory on the laptop to 700+. I
have copied everything to the harddrive.
I can't import the video into the laptop- no phone
connection- or I would make them on the Dell and see if
that works.
I am a drama teacher and want to be able to illustrate
points in my teaching by using short example.

Help! Please!
Yours in an-tii-pationnnnn,

Is there any one who can suggest a way of doing what I
want
