I have a problem playing movies in a PowerPoint presentation on a colleges laptop. The movies are ~ 10 MB AVI’s. When I switch the display to laptop only or projector only the movies work fine. But when I have the presentation running with both displays turned on the projector display turns black as soon as the movie starts playing. I know it’s possible to run the presentation on both because on my laptop it works fine. Are there some video settings I have to adjust?
