I would check the slide condition, or is it possible the slides are in backwards? Sort of sounds like the slide frames are not holding the slides tightly and you have way to much curvature to the film. Do you have a Target slide to check against? They are still available from Leica NJ for not too much, seems about $5 if memory is right.
