Drawing/image/picture not visible in Excel on one pc

[Amedee Van Gasse]

Hello,

One user can't see the images he pasted into an Excel sheet last
month.
The images were probably Visio drawings, inserted with a simple copy/
paste (not paste special).
Normal paste means that the object is no longer a visio object but an
image.
The placeholders are still there.
Only on his pc.
His collegues don't have the problem, they see the drawings.
Excel 2003, Visio 2003.
I have checked in Tools-Options that Excel is set to show objects, not
only placeholders.
Already did a repair of Office with Control Panel - Add/Remove
Software.

I searched http://www.google.com/search?q=excel+image+not+visible but
the first couple of pages didn't turn up any useful solutions.

Does anyone have any suggestions about what else should be checked.

Kind regards,
Amedee

Solved!
I reduced hardware accelleration in the troubleshooting tab of the
advanced display settings.
