Hi,
I have tried to install a dummy local printer like it was suggested in your link but it is still crashing. No other printer are currently installed.
The only add-ins I see is the standard microsoft add-ins:
Custom XML Data
Invisible On-Slide content
Off-Slide Content
OneNote Noes about ppoint presentation
PResentations notes.
Also another usefull information, I was able to make it work by deleting OFFICE 14 entry in the registry, then doin a repair of Office. But at soon I installed Microsoft update for office, the problem came back.

OneNote add-in shouldn't cause problems, but I have heard of it doing so on occasion. Maybe try disabling it.

How can I disabled it when I am not in Safemode? PPoint crash as soon I start it.
Doesn't it let you disable that add-in when you're in safe mode?
ASKER
they are already disabled in safe mode. I guest this is why it is working.
May be deleting some registry?

I have just removed that add-ins and I have the same problem.
I don't know, then. You might try running a repair of Office in Windows Control Panel. That will sometimes sort things out.

I tried that... I even uninstall it, reboot and reinstall it. Same issue.

Advanced is grayedout! Can it be because I am running safemode?
Really? That's odd. Maybe reboot and try that again.
Advanced is usually grayed in SAFE mode.
You may not be seeing all of the AddIns
In safe mode run this code
Sub getAddIns()
Dim oAI As AddIn
Dim oCOM As COMAddIn
Dim strReport As String
strReport = "PowerPoint AddIns" & vbCrLf & "~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~" & vbCrLf
For Each oAI In Application.AddIns
strReport = strReport & oAI.Name & vbCrLf
Next
strReport = strReport & vbCrLf & "COM AddIns" & vbCrLf & "~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~" & vbCrLf
For Each oCOM In Application.COMAddIns
strReport = strReport & oCOM.Description
Next
MsgBox strReport
End Sub
If you don't know how see www.pptalchemy.co.uk/vba.html
Is there anything else there?

Didn't realize advanced options would be unavailable in safe mode. Sheesh.
If you want to try zapping the MRU (most recently used), you might need to do it in the registry, then.

Even after deleting all office registry and reinstall I have the same problem. I don't think it is related to some Office setting.
Yeah, I'm stumped.

Video Drivers re-installation was the solution. I had tried that last friday but I guest it was a bad set of drivers. I pick the one from Dell Support web site and Power point is now working fine. Thank you Echo_S for your help.

Also, you mentioned that you don't see any add-ins that might cause this. Question: do you see any add-ins at all? If so, what are they? Send to Bluetooth especially is implicated in this type of crashing.
