PROBLEM: Graphics have disappeared.

SYSTEM: Windows 98 2nd edition, Pentium III, 85% resources, 550 mhz, 128 mb ram, 32 bit file system, 10.2 gigs, 56K Conexant modem (all purchased 9-1999).

MALFUNCTIONS: For other reasons, Explorer had to be repaired & Windows had to be reinstalled. Now my graphics are missing! There are only dummy placekeeping little boxes with red & blue geometric figures in them. All the navigation bars & ads in my ISPs are missing. All the pictures in my e-mails are missing.

ATTEMPTS TO REPAIR: Tried restoring registry. That only added other problems. Went to start/settings/contrl-panel/system/performance/graphics --- turned the accelerator down two notches & rebooted. That had no effect.

WHAT DO YOU RECOMMEND?"

Just checking "show pictures" did it, Sedu. Now I can navigate ISPs & web sites again. Thanks for the rapid graphics cure. (taylorm99)
