Vista - Vista not reading files off CD

11-27-2007

I tried to open a CD of pictures on my Vista machine. Of the 3 files, only 1
has pictures. I open the CD on my XP machine and all 3 files have pics in
them. What's up with Vista?

It may depend on format. Some picture formats are not able to be viewed as
thumbnails but will still be present. Change the file view to detailed. Are
all three there now?

All 3 folders are there. The problem is that Vista is telling me that 2 of
the folders are completely empty (0KB) even though my XP machine says that
all 3 folders have stuff in them. I can open all 3 folders and view all of
the pictures in them on my XP machine.
