problem with slide show in xp picture & fax viewer

[colleen]

When I insert a CD with .tiff files on it, I choose the
option of having it open as a slide show using the
Windows picture & fax viewer. The first 2 pictures open
as expected. Then it just stops with the hour glass icon
on the screen with the second picture.
When I do 'contr,alt,delete' & then click on task manager
the fax viewer program alternates between "running"
& "not responding" ad infinatum.
Any suggestions as to how to remedy this situation & get
the slide show option operable? Thanks to any one that
can help, Colleen

=======================================
Might be a dirty/damaged CD.

Try cleaning the CD.

If you have two drives...try the other one.

Can you copy the files to your hard drive
and view them from there?

THis problem with the picture & fax viewer occurs any
time I try to do a slideshow, even from folders with
pictures on the hard drive.
