windows picture viewers opens and preview 10-15 pics then
all of a sudden crashes....no error message no
anything....after it happens the screen shows all my
system tray icons and the taskbar refreshing....i can
then go reopen viewer with no problems for another 10-15
pictures....any ideas?
 
Updating your graphics driver may help, go to the manufacturer's web site and look
for a newer driver. Do a disk clean-up too, your temp cache maybe full. Double-click
"my computer" right-click your hard drive, properties, disk clean-up. In Windows
Explorer, folder options, view, tick "do not cache thumbnails", this may help.
 
mary,
tried all that and while i had explorer open to change
settings it closed on its own....wasnt even looking on
pix, had my C: highlighted and thats it.....any other
suggestions?

Do you happen to have Adobe PhotoShop or
Elements installed?

If you do...right click on a .jpg file and choose
Properties. Click the Photoshop Image tab
and uncheck the "Generate Thumbnails" button,
then click OK.

Oh well, I knew it was a stretch but thought
it couldn't hurt to ask.

Try this:

go to...Start / Run and type:

"REGSVR32 SHIMGVW.DLL"
(without the quotes)(Yes, there's
a space between 2 and S)

Click...OK.

Also...I wonder if it would help to run Disk
Cleanup and delete all of your temp and
temporary internet files.
