It sounds like you moved or renamed the directory the pictures were in. Thus, the link was broken in the doc. You will have to relink the pics or name the directory to the old name for it to find them.

Just a thought. It could be that there were some links through to the site that were not removed when you pasted them into Word? In word try Edit then down to links to check and if necessary break links.
