Double click on any photo file you have in a folder.
The picture will open.
Tell us the software the picture is opening in.
Is this picture opening in Windows Picture and Fax viewer (the default) or
is it opening in some photo editing software like Adobe Photoshop or some
other photo editing software?
Also, tell us how much RAM memory you have on your computer. It should be
something like 128, 256 or 512 MB or higher.
