slow advance with PPV

When I run a PPS application created in PPT 2002 on PPV
2003, the slide advance on mouse click is slower than
when the application is run in PPT 2002. The delay is
annoying. Can I speed it up?
 
George,

I have seen this when running a 2002 presentation in 2003, which is the
reverse of your problem. I haven't figured out why it happened, but in this
instance, I used the new viewer on the target machine to run it
successfully. I'd be interested to know if running it in the viewer instead
of ppt 2003 helps.

Hello George,

Unlike PowerPoint, the PowerPoint Viewer does not use any graphics card
hardware acceleration. If you turn off the use of hardware acceleration in
PowerPoint (in the Set up show dialog), is the transition speed equivalent
between the two?

If you (or anyone else reading this message) think that it is important
that PowerPoint Viewer respect the hardware acceleration settings used when
authoring the presentation and/or provide it's own options to
enable/disable use of hardware acceleration, don't forget to send your
feedback (in YOUR OWN WORDS, please) to Microsoft at:

I usually find the opposite - if Hardware Acceleration is on the transitions
appear smoother but there is often a delay between clicking and the slide
advancing.
