Unless the old Sun ODF converter added the pptx format in OpenOffice, I 
can assure you that OpenOffice was never able to save in pptx format. 
Would you, by any chance, have saved the presentation with PowerPoint 
2007? The only possibility you have -- and ever had -- was to save in 
PowerPoint 2003 format (ppt).

The good news is that ppt presentations are fully compatible with 
PowerPoint 2007, so whatever you export in ppt format will be useable on 
a computer running Ms Office 2007 or 2010. The bad news is that the 
export process has its flaws.
