LumenLux Posted April 5, 2006 Report Share Posted April 5, 2006 Welcome to the forum.I don't know what is causing your crashing. If you have not already done so, I would try to identify what individual slide or music comes into play at the trouble point. Then in your Project file, exchange the suspect item with a different slide or song that is working elsewhere in your show. If that makes a difference, you can then focus on correcting the guilty party. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jobert Posted April 5, 2006 Author Report Share Posted April 5, 2006 Thanks for your help.I removed three slides at the crash point,and now it just crashes at the next slide up.Any other suggestions? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jobert Posted April 5, 2006 Author Report Share Posted April 5, 2006 Ok I figured it out.(With a search on this forum for "crashes").It appears that if you run a preview or "test" of a P2E screensaver there will be trouble when the regular opsystem enabled screensaver times on. If you disable your regular screensaver life is good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All of these should be disabled or cancelledor pushed-back to allow PTE to run without interference.Brian.Conflow Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
