Preview works; Published Output is all black and audio fails (.exe &.swf)

Original demonstration videos were CP4, I converted them to CP5 and added audio.  Preview mode displays everything as intended.  When publishing to a local location in .exe or .swf just displays a window where the movie should be playing but it is completely black.  Audio begins to play but stops at the same time the screen goes black.  I uninstalled and reinstalled Flash Player 10.  I have attempted modifying the Quality settings from high (24 bit) to low (8 bit) but that didn't change anything.

I have successfully upgraded and published previous CP4 ot CP5 videos.  Unsure as to why the last 3 video upgrades I tried are failing.

If anyone can offer any assistance, it would be much appreciated.

Thanks, Julie

    Excellent, thank you.  I apologize for any inconvenience.  I searced all topics for black screen and found nothing; then discovered a few topics right on the front page that were related.

    Thanks again for the quick response.  Published output works.
