Screen Turns Blurry While Using Microsoft Word
Mar 7, 2004
This has been happening for awhile now, but this is really bothering me now as I have been typing an essay that is due tomorrow and everytime I open it, especially when I scroll down or any movement of the page, the screeen becomes very fuzzy and blurry. I have XP PRO, and this only happens in Word, not while surfing the web. I know it has something to do with my cpu as I have tried 3 various monitors that I have and the problem still persits. The lines on teh screeen are of a reddish color, and it becomes hard to view the letters.

When I try to open Microsoft Office Word 2003 a window pops up that says window installer then it says installing microsoft office word feature. It stops half way and another window pops up that says Installation error file not found. A required installation file SKU112.CAB could not be found. Original installation source required. If you installed Microsoft Office Standard edition 2003 from cd please insert your cd.
If you installed Microsoft office standard edition 2003 over your computer network please browse to the installation source on your computer. Also a window popped up that says Microsoft word has not been installed for the current user. Please run setup to install application. I don't have the cd its lost. This just started doing this about a month ago. I can't open any files through microsoft office word or power point.

About 2 weeks ago I went to open an attachment and it said i needed a different program to open this. Up pops a box with a dozen or so of my regular programs so I though I will try microsoft word. I now know that was the wrong thing to do as all my pictures on my computer (hundreds) if clicked on Microsoft word opens AND THEN EVERTHING COMES UP IN XO/ JIBBERISH.i THINK ITS CALLED SCRIPT.The only way I can get the picture to open in the right program which is Nero is to right click mouse and point to open .It then directly opens in Nero.Last night we uninstalled Microsoft word and Nero to see if that helped and it did not.Lastly if email is sent with attachment when it is open it also come up through Microsoft word in gibberish however the picture is in the bottom prevue pane.

Microsoft Word came with my Dell laptop. Now, I have had to reload Word on another one of my computers, and it won't let me open Word with out putting in the "product Key". I can not find the product key anywhere. I know it is supposed to be on the outside sleeve of the CD package, but it is not. Microsoft said to contact Dell, and Dell said to contact Microsoft.

I have a work computer that came with Microsoft Word 2007 already installed on it, i did not recieve any product key or anything. it let me use it 50 times, now it's locked me out and i can't touch it, i tried activating it but i can't without a product key. I tried explaining the situation to the microsoft tech support guy and he just told me i had to buy a product key. I had one of my friends tell me that the same thing happened to him, and that it was some sort of glitch in the '07 office program. Apparently there is a way around it on the internet, but i can't find it and i am by no means tech savvy when it comes to computers...

I downloaded a couple of new fonts, an ocr-b and one that looks like handwriting. They are in a folder called fonts that I thought was associated with Windows/fonts but apparently is not. My question is, should they be in the Windows/fonts subfolder? How can they be imported into Microsoft Word? Well that's two questions, actually.

I use Office 2000. I think the latest big patch windows sent out. This was the one dealing with the Metafile Vulnerablity. Whenever, i click on a microsoft word document I get Windows Fax and Image viewer. The only way i can get it to open in word is to use this route. Right click the file>click on open with<choose Microsoft Word. This is just really annoying and i believe its related to the patch

I just did a clean install of XP Home on my mother? s Inspiron 1200, thinking it had pickup a virus or some kind of bug. It was very sluggish and was having a hard time booting up. Since I did the install the machine is acting a lot better, it boots faster & shuts off fine. But, after it gets warmed up, when you click on an item (Microsoft Word) on the menu bar, like edit to cut & paste, the shaded area jumps back and forth. It will jump back to file, then to format. The hotter the machine get the more this happens, then I have a hard time cutting the machine off, does anybody know what is going on? Is it a hardware problem or software problem?

Everything WAS fine until I installed Windows SP2 onto my computer, and now my CRT monitor (Samsung 763MB) has been blurry; like when a TV signal thats not coming in very well, a faded double, regardless of smoothing being set to ClearType or Standard, this ghost shadow wont go away. Ive reinstalled the monitors drivers (I downloaded a new copy even though it was the same version, so I know my driver install wasnt corrupt. I have half a mind already to uninstall SP2

When you turn it on the lights come on and you can hear the hard drive for a sec or two but nothing comes up on the screen, I put in the recovery disk and the cd-rom you can hear it start up and try to run it but nothing comes up on the screen at all. Its like you hear the cd-rom cause it is louder when it first starts up and then like it stops. when you open it you can see the disk had been spinning. anyway again nothing, absolutely nothing on the screen. I took the hard drive out and hooked it to my desktop computer with a usb hardware that you can hook up internal harddrives externally and see whats on them. I have used it many times before except always on a destop harddrive where you have a place to hook up the ac power. On the laptop drive it doesn't have a place to hook up the power so I just plugged in the usb and you could here the hard drive click and try to start but didn't. I thought it was probably the harddrive so I got a brand new one, same kind the travelstar. I put it in the laptop and then put the recovery disk in and you could hear the cd-rom start up but still nothing on the screen. I even plugged in a regular monitor to the laptop and nothing comes up on its screen either. Did I buy the hard drive for nothing? is the laptop just shot? or is there something I have to do to the hard drive before I put in in and try the recovery disk? Someone please give me a suggestion. The guy that owns it says they thought lighning hit it but most peopled say that. I don't know if they left it plugged in or what but like I said when you turn it on the lights come on and the cd-rom must work so it is getting power.

When I click on a Word document (on my Desktop, for example), it seems to take a long time for the document to open. Yet if I have Word open and click on the document it opens instantaneously. Similarly, when I right click on a document, photo, spreadsheet file, it takes what seems a long time for the menu (Open, Run as, Send to, Delete, etc..) to open.

I have Windows XP Pro SP2 as my OS. When I try to save a document directly from Word onto my DVD I get the message that is read-only. The OS does see the DVD drive because Roxio can burn to the drive. I prefer saving directly to the the drive from Word. What could be the problem?

I just installed my home Dell Dimension 4700 -- and can't seem to find any MS Office or "Word" options on my "All Programs" drop-down. The system is supposed to have Windows XP resident, but I'm not finding any of it. Also, I want to be able to convert old Word Perfect files to Word -- and vice versa, but have thus far been unsuccesaful in figuring out how to do it.

downloading and installing update to my computer from windows update. Every time I try to enter the pages, the screen freezes on me. I even restored my computer and still it happens, only with microsoft - windows sites. Now Once I did get to the point to check for updates, but after doing the express check, all downloaded but could not install. Was getting this message: Files that are required for Windows to run properly must be copied to the DLL Cache.

I recently have built a new PC using parts i ordered and parts from my old system which desperately needed to be replaced. After my new system was created it ran well for about a month. When i came to turn on my PC one day i was greeted by a blue screen telling me that my windows registry files became corrupt. I used Microsoft.com's fix using the setup disk and had my PC working again. About a week later i was surfing the net and soon every program i accessed started to become corrupt. Knowing i didn't wanna mess with any log Microsoft fix i simply formatted and reinstalled windows XP on my system.
