Is there a way to set a PPS file as a screensaver?

 

Thanks

Make a screensaver from PowerPoint

I looked at that but its not right, i would like to run a scr file instead of lots of pictures

Something like this?

 

PresentationPoint | MessagePoint free PowerPoint screensaver

 

Not tested it yet, but seems promising as I'm wanting to have something a little more interesting than a Marquee with the school name .. lol ..

hmmmmm, ive create a flash file and converted to scr, then put it in a network share and it works. The only problem now is students cant access the \\server due to GPO settings... looks like a long afternoon trailing through policies.

When i created my schools screensaver i wrote a batch file that copies it down to the local machine in the folder where all the others are (cant remember where it is now!) and then edited the registry to change the default screensaver to that one.
