How do I keep my graphic images visible in Word?

When I insert graphics into a Word document they disappear. They are
sometimes visible in Print Preview, but not always. I am able to see the
sizing handles when I click on the image. Using Office XP.

A few things to try:
1. In Word, if you're working in Normal view, switch to Print Layout view
(View | Print Layout), because objects that are formatted as "float over
text" (Word 97) or as something other than "inline with text" (Word 2002 and
2003) are not visible in Normal view.
2. In Word, click on Tools | Options | View tab | check the "Drawings"
box and uncheck the "Picture placeholders" box | Print tab | check the
"Drawing objects" box | OK.
3. If neither of the previous suggestions fixes the problem, then try
reducing the hardware acceleration setting in Start | Control Panel | Display
| Advanced | Troubleshooting. If this fixes the problem, then you might want
to check the website of the manufacturer of your video card/graphics adapter
to see if there is an updated driver available.
