screen prints in doc take too long to be visible

I have a real problem with inserting/paste screen prints (or pics/photos)
into a document (especially if there are two or more). I create work
instructions for my department with screen prints for better understanding
and they either take too long to open/be visible or they don't appear at all.
My PC memory is quite adequate - and I don't have problems with other large
documents, seems to be just a problem with inserted screen prints and photos.
Does anybody else have that problem and how can one work around it? :)
thank you!

Video driver may be the fault.

Go to Display Properties > Settings > Advanced > Troubleshoot, and drag the
Hardware Acceleration slider down three notches, you will be able to disable
Word from making the calls on the video driver that causes this problem.

Important: Changing the hardware acceleration does not solve the problem. It is
merely a method by which you can see that the problem lies with the video
driver.

Go to the manufacturer's web site, look around for an updated driver.
