Its not that I'm paranoid. Its that I did a beta once and soon after had to reformat my drive and re-load XP. That thing messed up my eMachine like you wouldn't believe. lol

So, what was the problem I was having, you can say not reading the instructions that were being supplied and one other little minor thing. When unzipping a file the word extraction sometimes makes people do the wrong thing. Just saying. Once I figured it out it was like the light bulb came on in the head.
So now I'm off to update to the beta version. Fingers crossed.
Thank you Junior and karmat.
Your welcome Philly, glad you got it all working right! Maybe you can tell RND what you did exactly, so we can have two happy campers!

Nothing wrong with eMachines. I had ODNT 2005 on it plus all the other apps from Stardock. That was before Dreamscape. Pushed that sucker until it crashed ..... twice.

RedNeckDude sorry I wasn't able to get here sooner, I've been working 80hr weeks. Did you get your problem sorted out?

I kind of messed up here RND I seen there was a new reply to this thread and when I went to check it out I was not on the last page. I seen your post about not being able to get things working so I made this post in response to that. For all I know maybe you did get things working properly.
I will still leave this here though just in case there are others that want to know about how to make the slideshow skin to work. If any one has question just ask. I am not always the best at explaining things but I will post screenshots from now on.
First for the music again if you are using ABP the only player it will recognize is iTunes. If you use a skin such as Gnometer it will recognize a few different players.
For your slideshow you need to right click on the slide show and a menu will open. Mouseover the third option in the list which is ABP. You will see another window open and hover over the 3rd option again which is configure. A single side menu will open that says Configure.ini and then click on that. Now a black configure window opens and click on variables and another window opens with a scrollbar. Scroll down the list until you see slideshowPath. Click on that and enter the path where the picture folder is you want displayed in slideshow. For example my path is C:\Users\owner\Pictures\Emz. In the next line you can enter a name for the slideshow text but that is optional. I know it sounds like a lot of windows to open but look at my screenshot and you will see how it is done.

All right, I figured it out. Thanks to Junior Crooks and to karmat for hanging in and replying with the correct information.
