Hi folks,

I didn't find a solution to this searching the web:

I'm using Powerpoint from the Office 2003 Professional edition here.
Since a few days lines and images don't show anymore in the main pane (as
if I was drawing white on white). They are there, I can edit their
properties etc. In the properties of an element (i.e., a line) regardless
what color I choose the selector box will show only white. If I move the
dialog box over the element I'm editing the properties, it shows correctly
until I hit "Preview" or "ok". Only text is shown in the main pane (not
even the slide layout chosen from the templates).

However, everything is shown just right in the slide overview.

Any ideas how to fix this?

Thanks,

Hjalmar
 
No luck changing the hardware acceleration (I moved it notch by notch from
full to 0, applying the setting and checking powerpoint in between).

thanks for the quick answer.
 
No high contrast set. Alas, setting it and changing back doesn't change
anything in the powerpoint slide. Interesting setting though.
 
Updating the video drivers did the trick. Not sure why it stopped working
all of a sudden though.

thanks again. That was immensly helpful!!
