A few things to try:
1. In Word, if you're working in Normal view, then switch to Print Layout view (View | Print Layout), because objects that are formatted as "float over text" (Word 97) or as something other than "inline with text" (Word 2000, 2002, and 2003) are not visible in Normal view.
2. In Word, click on Tools | Options | View tab | check the "Drawings" box and uncheck the "Picture placeholders" box | Print tab | check the "Drawing objects" box | OK.
3. If neither of the previous suggestions fixes the problem, then try reducing the hardware acceleration setting in Start | Control Panel | Display | Settings | Advanced | Troubleshooting. If this fixes the problem, then you might want to check the website of the manufacturer of your video card/graphics adapter to see if there is an updated driver available.

Hi, rather than just reinstalling all over again can I fix this?
I prepare lots of simple documents but ones that contain a few pictures. They're never displayed until I use preview. Sometimes but very rarely - pictures will appear if scrolled off then on the page. Any ideas? Thanks - Rhumpus
