Articulate Storyline unable to import PowerPoint

Hi there, 

I kept on getting the Articulate Storyline Error Report when trying to import the PowerPoint file. 

The Storyline is able to read the slides with previews, however when I tried to import, it crashes everytime. 

Tried saving the PowerPoint as 97-03 Compatible PPT format and still not working. 

The slides does not have animations, it only contains images and audio tracks. 

Any suggestions? Really need to get this done urgently. Thank you.

 

here's the error log.
