Word 2k3 Problem

=112= · 03-24-2005, 01:08 PM

I have a word document file that contains pictures. When i was using office xp, the pictures would show, but now that i've upgraded to 2k3, the pictures wont show anymore. the weird thing is, if i move a different folder over the document screen, the pictures appear. I don't know if i'm explaining that right but say i have the word document up, and i open another folder. if i move the folder above the word document, the pictures begin to appear. anyone experience this problem before? i'm thinking maybe the graphics card isnt good enough. its an onboard graphics card for an intel motherboard. Thanks for any help.

if im understanding your question correctly, yes that does sound like a videocard error,onboard cards usually share memory with your computers main ram and usually arent high performance cards. if your computer has the empty brown AGP slot on top of the card stack inside your machine, a new video card will be easy to find and install. if you only have white slots on the top of the stack then you need to find a pci video card(you prolly have a cheap dell), a lil bit harder to find but easy to install, they will fit in any white pci slot. if im not understanding your question correctly, it could be a view setting on explorer.
