--- The information in this article applies to:

- Microsoft Publisher version 2.0 ---

SYMPTOMS

=
With some video cards, you may find that your computer stops responding (hangs) or you receive a general protection (GP) fault when you run Publisher at 1024 x 768 resolution in 256-color mode and use bitmaps.

The problem may occur when you import a bitmap, change the view to 200 %, and then wait for a few moments.

Very few instances of this problem have been reported.

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Publisher version 2.0. We are researching this problem and will post new information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.
