Hello ..

I would really appreciate some help with the following:

One of our pc's at the office has a problem showing jpgs (or other picture
files) as thumbnails (no pictures) in windows explorer. We have folders
full of jpgs, which on other systems with win 2000 show the thumbnails, but
not this one system. When you click the View icon on the Windows explorer
screen and choose "thumbnails" nothing happens, we just get blank squares.

I checked Tools, folder options, view and couldn't see anything I could
change to correct this problem.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Abay
