I did some more testing by uninstalling the new version and reinstalling Version 6.0 build 3023 (40f5885). It works fine as does Version 5.0 build 10949 (20d085a). I reinstalled the new version and the problem returned. I will test on my laptop when I get chance.
With images selected start a slide show. There is a short delay and the slide show settings pop up apprears then click Start and randonly one of three things happens:
1. A blank screen a2ppears and nothing else happens - the most common.
2. The slide show starts
3. A black screen with a small white window labeled Slide Show apears and nothing else happens - the least common.
In cases 1 & 3, hitting Escape takes you back to the review screen.
