Powerpoint 2003

[Snojet]

Recently I installed the Beta version of Office 2007, installation was an
upgrade to Office 2003, installation went very smoothly, system operated for
a month brilliantly, then Powerpoint 2007 stop working.
All other programs in Office work fine.(Word, excel, Access, Viso, infopath,
Outlook, Publisher)
PowerPoint keeps telling me to start in safe mode, which have done, then
detect & repair, this done problem remains. (Endless loop)
I have uninstalled, reinstalled both 2003 & 2007.
Reloaded 2007 as stand alone installation, problem still remains.
I have now removed 2007 and reinstalled 2003, installed all critcal updates
but Powerpoint issue still remains.
I have even run check disc on the drive incase it was a corrupted file.
I have searched for pcb files, ppa files with no luck ,even looking in
hidden folders.
My last resort is to look here and post a Q.
Thanks

Snojet

was the beta version of office 2007 designed to run for 1 month before
expiring perhaps?

So PPT 2003 also opens in safe mode? If you go to Help|About and click
Disabled Items, is anything listed?

Please check to see if you have any PPT addins installed. See
http://www.pptfaq.com/FAQ00655.htm for instructions on how to identify all
of them, not just those listed in Tools|Add-ins.

I checked that also, as a possible issue, it doesnt expire until early Feb2007.
Thanks

Actual no version of powerpoint 2003 or 2007 opened in safe mode, just an
endless loop.
I checked disabled items, but nothing that should conflict.

I decided to do a final check and look back at recent changes to my program
list and found that this problem started around the time I installed Orgplus6
from Human Systems.
Upon checking the Orgplus6 program addins and found it has the ability to
publish work to various Office programs, Word, Excel, and Powerpoint etc.
Once I disabled this and went about disabling various other addins in other
programs, powerpoint 2003 started, as I livened various addin's everything
went well until I got to Orgplus6 and instant crash test dummy.
So now I have managed to get, 2003 and 2007 beta working again.
Obviously there is some issues with Orgplus6 for other Office and something
for Microsoft to be aware plus other users to be warry of.
I thankyou everyone for their help
