Unhappy XP - Now backgrounds will not print.

Disappearing background stuff.
Running Office 2002 in Windows XP Home.
Things like a text watermark which appears on screen in the print view disappears in normal view and in print preview and obviously does not print.
Grid background in a cad program appears on screen but disappears in the print preview and print process. It used to work.
Pictures / jpg files that previously printed correctly now have disappeared.
Office says that it has ‘repaired’ itself but no change.
I could be off base but this seems to have started when I downloaded IE 7 – or rather when it downloaded itself.
Any ideas short of reinstalling Windows and or Office – which seems the next step – would be appreciated. I am loathe to do the reinstall mainly because of all of the friendly updates which would have to be reinstalled. I only can get dialup.
Thanks.
