P: Slideshow - Black screen

Entering Slideshow after selecting a few pictures gives me a black screen and a wrong preview, see atached picture. This happened after upgrade to LR5 earlier this week and was not a problem in any version of LR4. I have tried with both NEF and DNG files.The only thing working is Export to PDF.

I am running a Dell Studio XPS with Windows 7 64-bit and ATI 4850 graphic.

I am having the same problem, when trying to export (NOT TO PDF) then en unexpeced error occurs.
I have been using Lightroom 4 before and did never have thees problems at the same PC (Windows 7 64bit) all updates and latest grafic drivers.
This problem have a lot of people if you look at the forums, but adobe does not seem to be interested to fix this issue or give any help, really poor support.

It seems to be hardware-dependent. I just got a new MacBook Pro and there's no problem on that machine. It's still there on my old MacPro.

They have different OS versions (10.7 on the Mac Pro, 10.8 on the MacBook Pro), but I don't think that matters. The problem shows up for some people on both Mac and Windows, and in several OS versions on each.
