How to configure my graphics card for PowerPoint 2010?
Tom
that my graphics card is not propoerly configured, but I closed this warning
with the option not to see it any more. After that, I realised that
something's not right, but I can't fix it now.

Since 2010 is in beta still, it may not be easy to find help for it.
But you'll need to DESCRIBE the exact problems you're having and tell us what's
not quite right before anyone can offer useful suggestions.

slow, it "stucks" all the time, so that effects like "floating up" really
don't exist (I can see only the end of the action and not the whole action).
It happens very often, that after a motion path the object (on the path)
disappears and appears again after clicking.
Generally speaking I can see everything, but animation fails.

card have shared memory - dedicated memory - split with shared and
dedicated?
What OS?
How much computer memory is installed?
In PPT in Set Up Slide Show is hardware acceleration turned on or off?

graphics card: NVIDIA GeForce4 MX 440,
driver: 5.6.7.3 (2004-04-07),
DAC converter: Integrated RAMDAC,
Memory size: 64 MB,
Fill Rate: 1.1 Billion Texels/Sec.,
Triangles per Sec.: 34 Million,
Memory Bandwidth: 1.03 Trillion,
Maximum Memory: 6.4 GB/Sec.
Operating System: Windows XP (2002 version), Service Pack 3,
Computer: AMD Duron(tm) 1.2 GHz, 256 MB RAM.
c. 850 MB free space on disk C:
As to options in "Set Up Slide Show" there is no option related to
acceleration of hardware (Office 2010).
If there's more information needed, please tell me. I checked graphics card
documentation, but found nothing about the type of card memory ("split",
"dedicated" or "shared"). If it is important, please tell me, where I can
find it.
Thank you for help.

That 256mb RAM could well be the problem.
I realize that Microsoft's System Requirements page for 2010 says that this
meets the minimum, but their "minimum requirements" tend to mean more "the
minimum required to get it to start at all" and not so much "you want at least
this much to be able actually to use it" and never an honest number that tells
you "Here's what you really need to make it work properly."
Diogenes' lamp self-snuffs when it hears the word "marketing".
Anyhow, I suspect you'd need 4 times that to get it to work properly.

MS suggests 1.5 gb free (of which some may be released after the install
completes).
The hardware accel option is no longer there in Slide Show setup, and doesn't
seem to be available anywhere, so we can let that one slide for now.
Over to VideoMaster Troy for the rest. ;-)
