David the pte extension is the file that is made when you do your fist save as -- it contains the settings pict order etc for the program assume your fist show is called david when do a saveas david a pte file is created david.pte you must now do a create as david and a file named david.exe will be created the exe is your show the pict to exe program will open the pte or you can use a text editor to open it if yo want to see the settings ken

dagrace welcome to the forum I start out with a fresh folder properly named - then copy and paste all picts into that folder,and when the time comes then i put copy's of all music, icons, urls text motes etc in that folder. then bascially follow your steps other than story board -- i have it in my mind what i want as you get used to the program you will develop a pattern do not be afraid to save as and create as under different names to reflect your changes -- you may want to experiment with fades text etc and is so easy to do a save as create as then compare your different versions i would label the picts first then resize with same editor -saves time- a lot of members use Irfanview which is very user friendly pict size 0f 80 - 150kb jpgs seems to be the optimum size and mp3's seem to work best good luck ken

Catlem welcome to the forum try a new cable from camera to usb switch usb ports download to a friends computer ?? if yes put the picts on a cd while there to CYA try reading cd at home talk to computer shop the usb bus could be bad do you have anything else/or friend that can plug into your usb bus ken

what program are you using to lower the size I and a lot of other members have good luck using Irfanview -- i generally use a compression ratio of 80 % quality for jpgs ken

using adaptec software select create a data disk you will be using the exe of your show so you have to find the exe then get it into the lower right area dragging it there will get it in the window make sure you have a blank un formatted disk in the cd burner drive an select burn good luck ken
