Default word under xp shows a black screen using print preview with w98

I am not sure Word 2003 is compatible with Windows 98? However to establish
which Word version you have, check Word Help About Microsoft Office Word
and the vesrsion is detailed at the top of the ensuing dialog.

If it is a compatible version Word 97 or 2000 then the problem is probably
related to the display resolution rather than the display driver per se.
Increase the colour density of the display.

I have a windows 98 machine using office xp's word (I think that
would make it Word 2003) only. When I go into print preview, the
screen displays all black.... I swapped out the video card three
times, changed the monitor twice, reinstalled w98 and Word but
nothing helped... Any help would be appreciated...
Thanks,
