sigelr Posted May 18, 2004 Report Share Posted May 18, 2004 Thanks to all fpr previous help. New question. I want to save a slideshow with music to a CD-R and then play that CD-r on a different computer (laptop). Does the laptop have to have the Pictures to exe software or will it simply run? Can you tell me exactly how to do this?Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ken Cox Posted May 18, 2004 Report Share Posted May 18, 2004 sigelrwell the first thing we need to know is what cd burning software do you have???????ken Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
d67 Posted May 18, 2004 Report Share Posted May 18, 2004 You have just to create an exe file from your slideshow.When you are in the main screen of PTE, you do this by striking the F9 key of your keyboard or with the menu "File" and "Create slideshow"Launching this executable opens and runs your slideshow (except for a Mac) with no need of PTE software Patrick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sigelr Posted May 18, 2004 Author Report Share Posted May 18, 2004 I have the basic Adaptec CD creator software that came with the computer. I ried using that to create/burn a cd-r but it didn't seem to work. I also have Musicmatch if that helps. Basically, i've got PTE downloaded onto my desktop computer at home but want to play a show on my laptop for portability. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The one thing you might be missing is that you need to tell CD Creator that you are burning a data disk or files. Make sure it is not set to burn music or picture files.

Ronniebootwest Posted May 20, 2004 Report Share Posted May 20, 2004 The Adeptec software is absolutely fine for burning slide shows to CD. Other members have already mentioned the fact that you must BURN A DATA DISC otherwise it will all go pearshaped. All you need to do is drag the .exe file of your show to the appropriate window and then burn. (autorun.inf also if you want the show to start up automatically) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
