Your photos are undamaged, but the computer has lost the information as to how to
display them. This is easily cured.
1. Open any folder. On the file menu, click TOOLS then FOLDER OPTIONS, then on the
General tab click "Enable web content in folders".
2. Alternatively, restart the computer in DOS mode (using an MS-DOS startup floppy
disk from www.bootdisk.com) and type the following -
SCANREG /RESTORE
Note the space before the slash character.
Then follow the on-screen instructions to restore an earlier version of your system
registry.
3. Alternatively, install the IrfanView photo viewer program. The installation program
will restore the computer to normal operation. Download this program free from http://www.irfanview.com
