Hello:

When I run a powerpoint 2003 show with my Laptop connected to my Ben-Q
projector and run the show using the projector remote control, I have the
problem of the show jumping back to the first slide in the presentation
without me having advaced the slide. It seems as though the computer has a
mind of its own. I am running Windows 2000 prof with all the latest updates
to all my software. When the occcurs, I unplug the USB cable from the
computer and have to advace the slides from the computer keyboard. It only
does this when I have the USB cable connected so I can use the remote.
Any ideas own what is causing this problem?

It sounds as though the remote might be defective or picking up wild signals
from some other source.

Can you try a different remote?
 
When I use the same projector but with a different computer (a Dell,
Inspiron) I don't have this problem. Is there a possiblilty that my original
Office 2003 disk has a corrupted file or something?

Not likely, since the problem goes away when you unplug the remote.

Does the problem computer have more than one USB port? If so try the other one.
Sometimes one will work where the other won't.
