Word 2000 hangs

[R.H.]

I am trying to paste an image from a bmp to a word document, but word hangs
when I try to do this. Does anyone know why and how to fix this? The image
was originally from a pdf file, but I could not paste it so I used paint to
create an image of the pdf information. That worked, but anytime I try to
paste an image, word hangs. This used to work, but for some reason now it
does not. Any ideas?

Could be your video driver. Turn the acceleration down on your adapter, see if that
helps, right-click your desktop, properties, settings tab, advanced button,
troubleshoot tab.
