hi, my win XP computer have been acting strange after I did a clean install.
here's what happened: I have a flash drive and saved some pictures from a
friend's computer, I then plugged the flash drive to my PC. I copied an
pasted the pictures and placed them on the "my documents" folder. I unplugged
the flash drive and tried to view the pictures...I can' seem to open the
pictures. An error appeared saying it cannot find something. It worked fine
before doing a clean install. something must have been disabled, I'm not
sure. Please help. Thanks a lot. And thank you to the people who have helped
me in the past. :)

One does not need any special graphic software. XP should open
the pictures using the Windows Picture and FAX viewer.
