Hi,
I'm using Word 2003 and I've begun to experience Word hanging when I attempt
to open up a document with clip art in it, when Word does open up some of
the clip art won't load up general.
Thanks Craig

See if there is an update to your graphic/video driver at the manufacture's web
site. You can test whether or not your driver is failing:
Right-click the desktop, properties, Settings tab, advanced button, troubleshoot
tab, slide down the acceleration a couple of notches. If your clipart appears
okay in Word, you need to update your driver.

Thanks Mary,
I already tried to update it and it said that it's already up to date.

Is this only one document or is it all of your documents with pictures? If it is
just this one, delete the image(s) and re-insert. Pictures become corrupt or it
simply is large and takes longer to load.

It's very sporadic, it's many of them but not all of them.

I'd still look into a video driver. Did you experiment with the acceleration?
Did it make a difference?
