Hi Enric,

Probably mine was not the exact same problem than mine, but when I read
Clara´s problem (the first post of this thread) it was, word by word, the
exact problem I had: I had power point, excel and word viewers installed and
excel and word viewers worked as spected but power point don't.

The solution you post, although I couldn't believe it, it made sense to me
(1033 and 3082 refers to localized version of files), 'cause I installed
english version of power point first... but as I am a spanish speaker I
prefer the spanish version so I unistalled english version downloaded spanish
version an installed it... but then it didn't work...

Maybe that's the case for the problem I had, but as soon as I renamed 3082
to 1033 it worked perfectly.

Finally I have to say that I use spanish version of XP (SP3) and don't have
any full-office products installed, only viewers, 'cause I use *other* office
solution.

That's nice...

OTOH... problem surely is *similar* but not *exactly* the same as Clara's...
(but the solution is, more or less, the same)

I've asked Clara: > You don't have *any* Office version installed?

Now... I ask you a, probably, better "double question"... You don't have
*any* Office version installed? or Do you have an English version of
Microsoft Windows installed and are installing the Spanish version of
PowerPoint Viewer 2007?

Then... this MSKB surely applies (also)...

Ja jajaja ...

Very funny indeed !

I had the exact same problem and I was wondering ... no... this cannot
be...
but nevertheless I tried it and it works ( No cycling needed) !!

How can this be?... I suppose it has to be with the fact that I installed
English version of viewer first but I uninstalled it and later installed
the
Spanish version... so somehow it seems that the spanish version was flawed
by
the previous english installation...

Blame microsoft for this... OTOH microsoft forums rocks big time 'cause
the
first attemp to solve this problem lead to this thread and this was in
fact
the correct solution... so I supposed it is a tie >;)

Look for a folder named 3082 in C:\Archivos de programa\Microsoft
Office\Office12

Right-click the folder to rename it from 3082 to 1033 (or make a copy of
the
folder and rename the copied folder to 1033)

Double-click PPTVIEW.EXE to open the Viewer after renaming the folder to
check if it is working now...

Very cordialmente
