I have created a slide show and saved the slides in a file named LENSESSILDES
When I try to create the .exe file and name it LENSESTORUN, it creates an executable file. The huge problem is that the show that it saves is the PREVIOUS VERSION of the show that I saved a few days ago. I have tried 50 times. I am saving to the right directory after deleting the previous version. I have tried renaming it, saving it to a different location, ect. To no avail.
The same thing was happening with V5.6 so I upgraded to 6.0 and was amazed to see that it did the same thing. I have re-booted.
Also, when I hit Preview it shows the old show not the slides in the order that I have saved them and the order that I see when I hit F4 to toggle back and forth...
Am I nuts???? II do not think so.
Please help as I need to create three big slide shows in the next day or so.
Also, I am running windows 64-bit Vista BUT, I created a new program last week just as I always do and did and it worked...

I am just a tad worried about all the resting and vacations that are being encouraged here. Take a quick break and then tackle that 'to do' list!

Tried the crittercube & all was well, however I'm not convinced it is a complete stress tester testing my whole system. IMHO something with music would be a better guide, as we know music absorbs a substantial amount of resource. Good start anyway.
