Since any old machine can run the slide show, I drop that old 486 into such a task and let it do just that. I have no cure for PowerPoint.

I work in IT for a small business, and their register computer has support for two displays.
Well they wanted to run a powerpoint presentation on the second display featuring their wares.
It works great until someone starts using the point of sales software, or anything, on the first display. At which point, the powerpoint presentation stops because it is considered (by windows) inactive, i guess.
Is there any way to work around to this?
