Default Embedded Images using Word 2000

In Print Preview, these's a red X if I remember correctly. To clarify, the
following scenarios occur:

On my machine (XP, Office 2003), the document opens without difficulty &
displays, I can copy & paste the embedded image into MS Paint.
On machines that are causing me problems, document refuses to display
embedded image, if I try to cut & paste it into MS Paint, all I get is a Red
X.

In print preview, again all is displayed is a red X where the image is
positioned. The document was received as an e-mail and forwarded to me. I
was able to open it without difficulty from Outlook, the PC in trouble can't
display the item when opened from Outlook, nor when the file is saved to the
hard drive and accessed from there.

If you check in Print Preview and in Page Layout View what do you get in
the area that should have the pictures in them (same size
blank space, a red x, or is the text closed in as if there was never a
picture there?

Do all of the machines using Word 2000 access the document locally saved
or on a network share or ???

Alas no joy. I've just discovered that this appears to be limited to one
document, which opens fine on all bar 2 pc's. I've tried the suggestions
below, and had a look at file properties, but no luck so far.

Any other suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
