It means that XP's "Picture & Fax Viewer" isn't designed to be run on Win
Me. For example XP's version of rundll32.exe is different from that in
Win Me (and also won't run on Win Me).

I am using the Windows Millenium Edition O/S, and when I double-click

I've checked "Folder Options-File Types-.JPG" to see what the
command-line is when a .JPG image-file is double-clicked and it's
this:

rundll32.exe c:\Windows\System\SHIMGVW.DLL,ImageView_Fullscreen %1

I've seen WinXP's updated "Picture & Fax Viewer" version of WinME's
"Image Preview", and it's far better because it has PREV/NEXT buttons
which allow you to (for instance) scroll back & forth through an
entire Explorer Folder of .JPG holiday photos.

I've tried to run WinXP's "Picture & Fax Viewer" under WinME by
downloading the later & bigger SHIMGVW.DLL file to c:\windows\temp
and then changing the "Folder Options-File Types-.JPG" command-line
to this:

rundll32.exe c:\Windows\temp\SHIMGVW.DLL,ImageView_Fullscreen %1

But when I double-click on a .JPG image-file after changing the
command-line like this, I get this error-message popup:



Can anyone tell me whether this error message means that WinXP's
SHIMGVW.DLL file contains "pointers" or something to other WinXP .DLL
files that rundll32.exe needs to access, or whether it means that
WinXP's "Picture & Fax Viewer" just won't run under WinME?
