Default Gray Background Behind Find Dialog Box in Word

Hi,

When I'm using the Find dialog box (or Insert Symbol, Insert Equation),
the document window behind my dialog box change to gray. The result, I
can't see my text in word.

How can I fix this?

Thanks!

If I understand your question correctly, this faulty display may be
due to either too few resources to properly display the screen...or a
video driver issue.

See this article to remove your temp files and tune down your hardware
accelerator to see if these techniques help.
