I'm having quite a bit of trouble with PowerPoint XP;
screen redraws take an incredibly long time, as does
selecting text in a text box, etc. Running on a Sony VAIO
with 32 megs of VRAM; on my other VAIO, everything is
just fine. I've run Disk Cleanup and Disk Defrag, with no
discernible difference. This is a recent problem, it used
to run just fine. Any ideas?

Thanks, T
 
In addition to Glen's suggestions, see what's running in the background
on your system.

I know that SETI wreaks havok with PPT 2002 on my Windows XP machine.
Some virus scan programs do the same.

You might also try changing your hardware acceleration

driver.
