Thumbnail Probelm

When I right click in a folder and select View, then thumbnail, only a few of
the images turn into thumbnails, the rest become a box that looks like it
will eventually become a thumbnail but nothing happens. Right clicking in
the folder and trying refresh also does not help. Any ideas?

It's a while since Thumbnail issues have been reported in the WinMe
Newsgroups, which were often caused by installing 'new' software. So this
might not necessarily be the solution in your case, particularly as you
suggest that *some* thumbnail images can be seen. However, it may well be
worth trying :-

Start | Run and type "REGSVR32 THUMBVW.DLL" at the StartRun prompt (no
quotes and note the space after the 32) then OK.

It certainly won't do any harm - and may even fix it!

A good place to start would be to precisely describe your particular
problem rather than attaching your post to a thread that finished two or
more weeks ago.

Thank Mike. I did do that too. I just thought maybe someone else in this
extensive list of threads might be monitoring the thread and help out too.

Debra,

Where? I can't find any other post from you in this newsgroup or any of
the other Win Me newsgroups in the last couple of weeks where you have
asked for help and described the problems that you are having..
