Displaying Graphics in Publisher 2003

Publisher is more critical about drivers and most folks tend to use many graphics in
Publisher documents. I hope you get your issue straightened out. It must be
frustrating for you.

Dear Mary
Thank you for your response. We will be talking to Dell, and one of our ICT
Coordinators had removed SP2 and found that this action restored the
graphics. However, we are reluctant to remove SP2 wholesale as we consider
it essential for our school networks. I am just puzzled why so many users,
according to your Publisher forum, experience this phenomonen. They do not
say what platforms they are using, but I cannot believe they are all using
Dells with the particular graphics card. I wondered how you accounted for
these independent and disparate accounts of an experience which we have in
common. Do you believe that the action you propose has always been
successful if all other cases?

I think it is time you spoke to Dell or looked at their support documents. This is
not a Publisher issue. You are experiencing a failure of your graphics driver and
if
it is failing on more than one computer, then Dell is the entity to which you
should
be addressing this issue.

If you think the service pack is to blame, remove it from one of your units and
test.

Some feedback on this problem. After upgrading the graphics card
which the consensus view seemed to suggest was the right course of
action, Publisher 2003 is still not displaying graphics on screen.

Come on, Microsoft! Look at the copious amount of reported problems
and DO SOMETHING! It seems to me that SP2 is the problem, so what
about a fix. This cannot be allowed to continue or are we being
encouraged to become Mac users?

When you restart your system in SAFE mode, do you still have the problem?

Thank you for the suggestion Brian. I tried this on several computers in
different schools and can report that it made no difference. Any other ideas
would be gratefully received.
