[QUOTE="chscag, post: 1626222, member: 46727"] Thanks for posting your specs. It almost looks like a video or graphics glitch but if it's only happening when you're doing a "save as" in MS Office, it could be something in the program has gone wrong. Your MacBook Pro uses an integrated graphics chipset (nVidia GeoForce 320m) which shares memory with the system. But I would think if it's a problem with the GPU that it would show up in other programs also. First thing to try is a reinstall of MS Office. You didn't mention which version of Office you're running? It's more difficult to remove and reinstall Office 2011 than earlier versions. Use the MS instructions at the follow KB link. [URL="http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2398768"]How to remove Office 2011[/URL] Removal and reinstall does not disturb your personal documents or templates but it's a good idea to back them up anyway. And make sure you have your serial number on hand! [/QUOTE]
