===========================================

This requires a registry edit...
I would suggest that you carefully read the
following article first before proceeding:

Information About Editing the Registry

====================================

There's a script you can download from the
following site that will increase the timeout
to 10 seconds...scroll down to #81.

Also, the following info was previously posted
by David Shiflet:

===========================================

The value of the number is represented in milliseconds
between image changes:
1000 = 1 second, 5000 = 5 seconds, 10000=10 seconds,
etc. To modify my script change the time accordingly.

In order to change the slideshow timing, open regedit
and go to the following key.

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\
CurrentVersion\Explorer\ShellImageView]

Create a DWORD named "Timeout", with the value the
number of millseconds between image changes (1000
(Dec) = 1 second, 5000 = 5 seconds)

Note that the time of actually changing the image is not
included, so 1000 =1 second + time to decode the image

===========================================

If you open the script from Kelly's site in notepad, you
should be able to use David's instructions to change
the timeout to anything you require.


Good luck....

Change it manually by using the Space bar and the right and left arrow keys.
When a picture comes on, press the Space bar. The picture will stay on your
screen until you press the right arrow key to bring the next picture (the
left arrow key to go back one picture). If you want the automatic (5
seconds) to come back, press the Space bar again.
