animation not projecting on screen

[liz]

Hello,

I am trying to play an animation in a powerpoint presentation. The animation plays on the screen of the computer but won't project on the screen. Has anyone had this happen? Do you know what causes it and how to fix it?

I have heard it might have something to do with the graphic card in the computer.

Please help!

I have had similar problems and have read alot of solutions...and ech solution has helped at various times.

My suggestion would be to see if it shows up when you toggle the "image" to show ONLY on the big screen (not show on your laptop)...

There are a few theories and solutions about avi clips not showing up. One is the acceleration of the graphics card, one is that video codecs can be at fault, etc...But these theories don't mention animated gifs as experiencing the same problem.

Try the toggle and see what happens.
