In Word XP 2002, when I insert a picture, I can see it, but when I scroll
down and come back to the page, then I cannot see the picture eventhough it
is still there. If I minimize the Word window and restore it back, I can see
the picture again. This is true for all inserted pictures in Word and has
been going on for a while now. I have updated my office to SP3 and uncheck
the "Picture placeholder" box as well as checked the "Drawings" box in
Tools/Options/View.

This appears to be attributable to the graphics driver with recent ATI
display adapters and the Intel® 82915G/82910GL Express Chipset Family
causing particular problems.

In the case of the latter, the latest driver
http://downloadfinder.intel.com/scri...ProductID=1764
appears to fix the problem. DON'T TRY TO USE THIS DRIVER WITH ANY OTHER
CHIPSET/ADAPTER.

If you have the problem with a different display adapter and are sure you
are using the latest driver, then try reducing the display's hardware
acceleration.
