fax console preview unreadable

[mtish]

just upgraded to XP & installed Fax Console; send
and receive seem to be working okay, but preview
displays them in Notepad in what i assume to be tif.
format;otherwise gibberish to me. Printing same
thing. Any ideas?

Sounds like the file association for .tif files has been set to Notepad
instead of the Picture and Fax Viewer. In most cases, the file association
should be:

"rundll32.exe <drive>:\WINDOWS\system32\shimgvw.dll,ImageView_Fullscreen %1"
