Hi guys, I've looking for in the web a slideshow program better than Quick View, I need it just to show in very speed files like gif or bmp, also I want to: Enter to go on and DEL to go back. I think it is too much to ask, Quick View is fast but not fast enough for my i386-20MHZ laptop, also if the viewer program could load next file in memory to increase the speed, like ACDSee, will be fantastic. If you know about this dream program, I'll be very thankful. Takeru

Sea 1.3 is such a program. But you will need a VESA compatible card.

Bunch o' stuff here - I used to use the PV viewer/convertor (PVE.ZIP) on some fairly marginal machines

Hey Jboy, if you think PVE is a good viewer you must try Quick View

Quick View is amazing and faster GIF viewer for DOS I ever seed, but I think it may be a program faster and pre-loading in "cache" the next file for faster slideshow, anyway I need this program to show PowerPoint slides (converted a GIF each) in my very old laptop 386. Thanks

Been there, done that
I suggested PV because you seem to want something that runs on some pretty humble hardware.
Also SEA and CShow have been mentioned in other posts - I guess you're on your own
