2003 Powerpoint hangs when you press slide show

We have a new Laptop (Averatec 1700 Series) running XP Professinal all updates to include ie7. The problem is in Useing 2003 powerpoint (install from 2003 Office Professinal + SP2) When ever we try to play the slide show either from a new or a saved project. All we get is: The slide show window shows on the taskbar at the bottom and nothing more. We have done a repair and also a reinstall.
Please Advise.

Can you open any powerpoint file?  Can you create one that will include graphics?  
Are you sure that the version of the new or saved project is the same as the one on your notebook?

The Drivers on this Averatec 7100 series Laptop are ATI express 200M, After uninstalling, Checking powerpoint using default VGA (and it worked fine) I reinstalled the drivers with chipset. Works perfect, Thanks alot and keep up the smart work.
