Re: Inserted pictures in Word show as a box - no image.

Anyone ever get a real solution? I started to use Open office - no problems
there. I still had problems when mail with word attachments came in, so i
rolled back the SP2 - and things work fine. Would like to update to sp2 - but
am waiting for a better day.

Download ATI latest driver only work for a period of time, that is my
experience. I done that 3 times over the past year, latest Dec 25. I have ATI
9600 graphic card, WIndow XP SP2, Office 2003 (tried XP), LCD with 12ms(tried
CRT), 1GB ram. 1. ATI tech support tried to resolve this issue from Dec 04
through Jan 05, no solution, they said it is MS problem, MS took over till
Feb 05, told to remove Adobe Acrobat 6, known issue conflict with SP2, I did,
but no fix and they have no solution. 2. Reinstalled Office and Window, no
fix. 3. Took Garfield's advise, turn down the acceleration setting and
disabled all DirectX, it works but computer seems a little slower. 4.Then
Downloaded new ATI drivers and able to turn acceleration back to high, only
worked for awhile, problem reoccured, still having problem from time to
time. When it happens, need to close all office application, and reopen word
first, if no go, restart computer. If your pictures disappear at all times,
turn acceleration down to low. I think is SP2 problem. Anyone out there has
better luck solving this issue?

This did the trick. Our IT guy was very hesitant to update the driver when
there was no other problem.

Thanks sundell4!

I had this problem and it did not help me. What did help was setting my
hardware accelerator down which did the job but I noticed a slow down on my
computer so I updated my drivers and now I can run at full hardware
accelerator and dont lose my graphics in word so it was a driver problem. I
have an ATI card and installed their new calalyst drivers and they are very
good.
