Problem with using images with Personal Response Systems

There is a problem with using images on the same slides as Personal Response Systems (PRS) questions in a Powerpoint presentation. The PRS questions do not advance when you move onto the next slides. This seems to be a common problem with Interwrite PRS version: 4.40.0005.

To check the version of the PRS software on your machine:

  • Open PRS and click on Help in the top menu.
  • Then click on About.


     
  • A window will pop up that gives the version number of the PRS software you have on your machine.

If you have this version of the software and are experiencing this problem, we strongly recommend that you do not put images on the same Powerpoint slide that you have a PRS question. This is a temporary work-around and we are looking to resolve this as soon as possible.
