Dispaly problems in Word after installing Office SP3

My Word documents formatted with multiple columns and/or tables cause the
screen to shift and overlay in Word 2003 after I installed Office SP3. Word
documents with simple plain formnatting do not exhibit this problem.
The Word that cause this screen shifting and flickering do not cause a
problem on my spouse's PC which has not been upgrade to Office SP3. Other
than Office SP3 the software on the two PC's is the same.
Before I delete and reinstall Office 2003 any suggestions how I can correct
this problem in Word 2003.
Thanks, DRS

Yesterday I removed MS Office and reinstalled to remove Office SP3. The
problem with flickering display in Word continued.
This morning, after reading some tips on the AIT website about resovling
display problems, I found that if I chnaged the Desktop properties "smooth
edges" from "Standard" to "Clear Type" the flickering display problem ceased.
(My wife's PC is still set to "Standard", has not had SP3 installed yet and
does not exhibit this problem.)
