Word Changes Display Resolution

[DiG2094328]

Windows XP
Office 2000
Microsoft Excel will launch normally

Microsoft Word - when you launch this, it changes the display resolution to
640x480.
When you close Word, it flips your resolution back to normal.
Once you launch Word, you can manually change the resolution back to normal
(1024x768)

I tried launching word from the exe and by opening a file. Same result both
times.
I uninstalled, rebooted, and reinstalled the entire office suite - same
result.

The computer is a Dell Dimension 4550.

Any thoughts? I just think it's weird that Excel works fine and Word
changes the resolution but then will let you change the resolution to
whatever you want and continue to work in Word. Thanks in advance.

Download the latest graphics and printer drivers for your Dimension, install
them and test again.
