Slide Builder not responding / hangs / hang / freezes / freeze when editing a slideshow

1/25/2024
Symptom:
The SongShow Plus Slide Builder hangs up, stops responding or shows a black screen during editing of a slideshow.  This may begin to occur after an SSP update. 

Possible Cause:
The graphics card does not fully support DirectX 9.0c.  This change began in the October 2007 Edition and became more stringent in later releases.

Possible Solution:
Disable the high end graphics (HEG) (AKA -  Full Graphics Mode) on all enabled displays to resolve the problem.  See KB TS292 for more information.

Possible Permanent Solution:
Replace the video card in your SSP system with a newer model that fully supports DirectX 9.0c or higher and re-enable the Full Graphics Mode features.
