Black Writing Spaces in Word

C

Charles

I can pull up a doc and I can view it fine. When I go to
type something in the page, the whole line just turns
black on me. It does this on a new doc also.
Obviously I can see what is being type since the letters
are black also. I tried deleting Word and reinstalling it
and the new version gives me the same problem...Black line
where I try to type.....

Any suggestions?

Hi Charles,

Typically this problem is due to your graphic settings. The most
common cause is that your color depth is set to 16 colors.
