Your post has been sitting there for a while with no answer.
Not that easy to say what is happening or propose a solution. Here are some
ideas.
First, run your antivirus software, to make sure your photo files are not
infected.
A run time error is very often associated with not enough RAM memory. You
are on XP. To run XP you need at least 256 MB of RAM. If you updated to XP
with an older computer with 128 MB of RAM or less, this may be the problem
and you will need to add more RAM memory. To run XP and photo files you
should have 512 MB of RAM
Also, a run time error is very often associated with an old graphic (video)
card driver in need of updating. You need to go to the Internet site of the
video card manufacturer and download and install the latest driver.
