I recently bought a new computer and installed office 2007. When I try and
shut powerpoint. The application closes and then I reccieve a message that
Powerpoint has stopped working and will restart!

What should I do!!!

I get exactly the same - I guess you are also using Vista? This is really
irritating - I hope we get a result...

printer driver installed.
