From: Over on 21 Apr 2010 01:15 First off, video files are not embedded in 2007 but linked so check that the avi files are on the new computer. Other issues it could be: codec problem - see if the avis run in the mci player (PowerPoint uses this to run videos, not Windows Media Player) file path length problem - try moving ppt and avi to the same folder directly on your C drive then reinsert the avi buddyddo wrote: AVI files won't play in Powerpoint with VISTA operating system 12-May-07 Both powerpoint 2003 and powerpoint 2007 AVI files won't play in windows vista unless extension is changed from AVI to MPG. These same AVI files play in VISTA Windows Media Player. Powerpoint 2003 and 2007 AVI files play correctly in Windows XP. It looks to me as though the problem lies with Powerpoint interaction with VISTA. I have emailed Microsoft and it appears that they are unable or unwilling to resolve the problem. Since I have too many presentations to correct by changing the file extension, I decided to go back to Windows XP operating system where Powerpoint 2007 works just fine. However, I will need to play these presentations in VISTA as well. Is there any patch or fix available rather than renaming the file extension to mpg and redoing all my presentations?? Thanks.
