When I click on a folder of pictures (jpg) in windows explorer, the pictures load very slowly (much slower than on my laptop which has a slightly faster processor but less memory). If I try to scroll down to the bottom --in either thumbnail or filmstrip view, windows explorer will often crash. Any ideas what may be causing this?
 
Same here , have had this problem for a long time. Reinstalled XP home, tried with and without patches- no go. But the lap top running same version of XP experiences no problem with explorer crash. I copied the same JPEG files to laptop and they work fine. Another terribly thing is that some of the JPEGs becomes corrupted after a while. Not able to preview in any program and not able to delete etc. Have search may fora and lots of people having same problems - so far no help on this strange problem. One thing that I haven't done is reformatting and reinstalling everything -this probably will help but it will be a pain.
