OK, I unchecked "do not cache thumbnails", rebooted, no improvement. What is weird
is I looked through all of my "My Pictures" folders as well as two of the main folders
I keep pictures in, and none of them had a thumbs.db file or any hidden files at
all except one had a "folder.dat" file. Only one folder with about 8 to 10 pictures
in it had a thumbs.db file.
I also want to add that I don't have really that many pictures on my computer, probably
around 400-500 max, and pretty well disbursed among different folders -- a friend
suggested I had too many pictures for Windows to load thumbnails, but I don't see
how that could be the case.
