can't save or veiw jpegs

[Guest]

Have been saving pics for years on aol and compuserve, right click, save pic as..., but can't do anything with this new computer. Some old ones that I saved will open, but 90% only give me a "no preview aval.".
Don't like the number of games I'm no longer able to play.
Many thanks.

This seems to have worked. Great answer.
Now, how can I open those things which I had saved on my old computer.
I had saved them with "ME" and never a problem, but now the XP I have the same problem.
Much thanks for the quick help!
It's nice to know there are some good people out there!

Please clarify...open *what* things?
What is the file extension (format).

Are the *things* copied to your hard
drive or are they on CDs?
