Slide Show - Problem
It doesn't work at all! I click "Slide Show" and get a blank/black screen with an error message: "The Slide Show has encountered an error and cannot continue. Please press the Esc key to close the Slide Show and try again."

Can you post details about your hardware config? I'll try to see if we can reproduce the issue. It may be a known bug.

P4 3.0GHz, 1GB RAM, 120GB HDD, ATI Radeon 9600XT (with ATI Beta 2 catalyst drivers, although error occured before this I think) - 1680x1050 display, using AC'97 Audio. Windows Vista is on a secondary partition, XP on the primary. - The funny thing is that it's one of the features I most wanted to play with! :P

I'll provide the machine details if you want.
