framemaker does not skip missing graphics

[Klaus Daube]

Dear all,

I have two installations of FM 8.0p277:
The one on the workstation behaves

On the laptop missing graphics can not be skipped when opening a file. 
Neither "Skip this file" nor "Skip all files" works. I just can Cancel 
and postpone the job to the workstation.
I have this problem since the first installation of FM 8 on the laptop 
and it did not disappear with the patches. It also did not disappear 
after a re-installation.

On both machines FM8 is running in Win XP SP2 with all automatic 
updates.

The files are on local harddisks - no network involved.

The only bypass i have is to use a script which allows me to open all 
files in a book silently.

Thank You for any ideas where this may come from.
