There used to be a time, about a week ago, Explorer would show a small
preview in Details whenever I highlight a mpg or avi file. But now, the
preview has stopped showing itself. And when I switch the folder view to
Thumbnail, all I see is the media player icon. Could someone please give me
some hints on how to solve this problem please? Thanks
