Links lost in PowerPoint Presentations

When I make a series of linked PowerPoint presentations into a cd, all links
work fine in XP and previous, but randomly lose association to images, links
etc in Vista - different links are lost with consecutive burning of the cd!
Powerpoints made with Office 07, and saved to 2003 compatible. Any
suggestions please?

When I develop my presentation, I keep ALL the files (linked and main
presentation) in the same folder. Then I move them (all the folder
contents) to CD and burn it. Always works on Visa and XP machines. If you
scatter the files around, you'll get unpredictable results since permissions
are not always set the same on Vista machines.
