Default I can't see my pictures

I have powerpoint 2003, and when I open a previously made ppt file, I can't
see the images (both inserted pictures and shapes) in the authoring window.
I can see them fine in the thumbnail pane, and in my presentation however.
When I add pictures or shapes, they show up fine.

Have you applied Service Pack 1. Start PowerPoint, go to the Help menu,
choose Check for Updates. Follow the instructions to apply SP1 if you
have not already done that.

Then the next thing to try is changing hardware acceleration.

How to set graphics hardware acceleration back

SP-1 is the fist step in troubleshooting these oddball display issues with
PPT 2003, though.

Echo...remember the problem I had you solved for me? I forget the exact
details, but it had to do with Accessibilty settings and, I believe, High
Contrast.
David, you might want to check it out. Have you applied any accessibility
settings lately.
To help me, Echo wrote:
"You might want to make sure you don't have High Contrast turned on. It's in
your Windows Control Panel. Go to Start/Control Panel, then select
Accessibility Options. High Contrast is set on the Display tab."

Sure.

Andy, check Windows Accessibility settings as described below to see if High
Contrast has been set by default. It's entirely possible!

I have checked the windows accessibility, and the high contrast is not turned
on.
