Windows 7 - Picture Library Thumbnail Views

After performing a Clean Install of Win 7 last weekend and setting my Picture Library view to Medium Icons, I was able to see the thumbnail views of all of my pictures. However, now all of my thumbnail views are exactly the same image (a Windows generated scene). How do I get the thumbnail views back to their original views of the actual images.

Just a guess but same thing can happen in vista. This is the fix
Tools \ Folder Options \ View and remove the checkmark from the "Always show icons, 
never thumbnails" option.

Yes it is. I now have three more PCs to change over once it goes well on mine. Taking care of the family's PCs keeps me hopping and up to date on all of the software and hardware.
