PPT crashes, not always on same slide

Hi,
I'm working on a large PPT presentation (330 MB). Using both iMac and
Dell laptop. PPT Mac version is Office 2004 version 11.3.2. The PPT on
Dell is Office 2003.

Presentation created in Mac. Transferred to Dell via flash drive. Some
minor editing in Dell. Works fine. View Slide Show works fine.

Presentation transferred back to Mac via flash drive. Opening and
editing are fine. View Slide Show crashes on one particular text slide
about 2/3 of way through presentation. However, if I go back to a few
slides before the one at which it crashed, and then view in full
screen format from there, it works right through the end.

So, I tried viewing it from the beginning, using the full screen mode
icon at the bottom of the window, instead of the View Slide Show from
the menu bar. Worked fine past the point where it had crashed before.
I was just about to shout "Hallelujah!" when it crashed again, at a
completely different slide.

Each time it happens, up pops the "Powerpoint has encountered an
internal error." message.

I've trashed the PPT preferences file. Still does the same thing.

This presentation has to be transferred to a Mac Powerbook running
Office X. It's due to be viewed on Monday. I'm worried about it
crashing during the middle of the presentation. Thank you for any help!
