In Word 2003 the graphis often (not always) become invisable after inserting
them. The graphic (photo, clipart, drawing object) is still there, it jus
does not show up. I am in Print Layout view. It does not show up in Print
Preview either. It does not matter if I use Picture Placeholders as they do
not show up either. It is running on a Dell Pentium 4 @ 3.2 GHz with 1 MB of
ram.

In Word, click on Tools | Options | Print | check the "Drawing objects"
box | OK.

Thanks for trying. The Drawing Objects box was already checked, but i
unchecked and rechecked just to see if that might help and it did not.

In Word, click on Tools | Options | View | check the "Drawings" box and
uncheck the "Picture placeholders" box. If that doesn't help, then try
reducing the hardware acceleration setting in Start | Control Panel |
Display | Settings | Advanced | Troubleshooting.

I tried that too, no luck. Interestingly it does not show even the picture
placeholder if I have that checked. Acceleration made no difference either.
Thanks

Do you have an ATI Radeon 9600 graphics card? Have you tried installing
updating the drivers for whatever graphics card you do have?

No, I have Intel 82945G Express Chipset Family. It appears no update is
available for this. Thanks for trying.
