Which filetype was it you were trying to preview, i.e. JPG images or AVI movies etc...?

Try to right click on the filename, select "Open With" then "Select Default Program" and pick the standard Windows default such as Windows Photo Gallery or Media Player with the remember selection box ticked, then OK it. Sometimes that can fix incorrectly associated files and rebuild the thumbnails. You can also clear the thumbnail cache and see if that helps : http://www.winvistatips.com/clear-thumbnail-cache-a152909.php

Have you thought of buying/or getting from your local library a book on troubleshooting Vista?
