Slide shows wont play Office 2004, will play Office X

Two machines a G4 dual 800 tower, and a G4 17" Powerbook. The tower
running OS X.4.10, Office 2004 with all the latest updates. completely
uninstalled and re-installed three days ago.

The powerbook, running OS X.4.10 and Office X, latest updates.

Same powerpoint presentation 1.1 MB file, received via email.

In the tower, when launched, the file will lock up on the first screen
(starts black, then a word comes spiraling in) there is a sound file
which will not play in the tower. sometimes the screen remains black,
other times the word will spiral in and then the tower freezes. Force
quitting PowerPoint is our only option.

In the Powerbook it works fine.

In NeoOffice, on the tower it works fine.

Any suggestions? After replacing the Application uninstaller and then
reinstalling, I am puzzled...
