I have an ATI 9600xt which allows me to play Far Cry and
Half Life 2 on High settings, so I'm pretty sure it can't
be that. But I will see if there are newer drivers.

Cheers for now

Poor graphics engine. Word is demanding of graphics and
if you have an
integrated graphics chip on the motherboard, it is
probably too feeble to
keep up the screen refresh when you scroll along. Other
than checking to see
if you have the latest graphics drivers, there's little
you can do other
than upgrade your graphics card.
