Running a presentation with 60 slides in an old computer with an old

when changing from presentation state to editing state with ESC.
Turning off hardware acceleration and write combining do NOT have ANY
measurable effect to this.
Old Powerpoint 2003 switches states so instantaneously it cannot be
measured at all.
When editing tens of slides hundreds of times, this 3 second lag
multiplied by hundreds of times is intolerable. It has coerced me to
return back to Powerpoint 2003.
Nothing to be done?
There must be *something* to be done because I don't see anything like this lag
here.
I'm on a relatively quick laptop but I'm running Office 2007 inside a virtual
machine (read: it should be relatively slow). It's switching from normal to
slideshow and back as fast as the video display will permit; nothing like a 3
second delay. So at least we know that the lag isn't inherent in the program.
One possible difference: the virtual machine's virtual video is quite low-end;
no dual monitors, and it's set for 1024x768x32-bit color. Try setting your
video to that (or 24-bit color if 32-bit's not available). Try also setting
the video hardware accelleration back.
