    Missing Driver?

    I had to have my computer reformatted due to a virus. However, when I got it back it now doesn't show any pictures in menus such as My Pictures. Instead of the picture it shows a general sky over a mountain and lake picture. They all open fine and none are missing so maybe it's a driver missing. Anyone have any ideas?

    It's when I go into My Computer. All video and picture files show as that one default picture.

    When in the explorer, click on tools then folder options
    Now click on view and ensure the 3rd box down is ticked (Display file icon as thumbnails)
    Another thing to check is to ensure the extension is linked to an app.
    Click on control panel and go into default programs.
    Click on associate a file type or protocol with a specific program. (it may take a while to load all the extensions used.
