There is a "System Pack" upgrade for Office 2003 users that is available from the Microsoft website for free. It will allow Office 2003 applications to open and view 2007 and 2010 files. Some of the effects may disappear, like "Reflection" for example, and some objects with text may no longer be editable until they are opened again in 2007 or 2010. For example, a rectangle with text typed into it.
The short answer is for you to get the free upgrade from Microsoft.

Microsoft power point slideshow wont open

Hello,

Your problem is either with your microsoft office installation, microsoft powerpoint installation or the powerpoint slideshow you are trying to open is damaged (or contains macros/virus etc) and thats why is taking long to open or doesn't open at all.

Recommendation #1: Do a repair install of the microsoft office you have now ( 2003 or 2007) You have to go to Control Panel-> Programs and Features-> select MS Office Proffesional 2003 or 2007 and click "repair" on the top bar of th Programs and Features toolbar.

Recommendation #2: In case the powerpoint slideshow is broken, see This link or This for more specific instructions.
