Photo Gallery Distorted

I posted a query the other day as my photo gallery is distorting photos when
I zoom on them. I haven't had any responses yet, but it is now happening
when I scroll through photos. It's like all the pixels are getting jumbled
up.

Any ideas how I can fix it please?

thanks

Rather strange!

Does this happen only with pictures?

What sort of pictures are they?

What are the specs of your PC?

I'm not a tecchie so apologies if i don't give relevant information. They
are all Jpeg pictures downloaded from my camera. I'm using a new laptop that
I bought in the USA last week (I'm from the UK). It's a HP Pavilion
Tx2115nr. I upgraded from Vista Business to Ultimate but had to do a clean
install which deleted the nvidia drivers which i reinstalled from the HP
website. Would that have anything to do with it?

Also I've just tested a couple of video clips - my .mov movies won't play -
the screen is just green with occasional flashes of the movie, but my .mod
files play ok.

Help!

To fix your .mov files I believe you just need to install the latest
quicktime player (free)

The Nvidia drivers shouldn;t affect your jpegs but it's possible, if
your camera went through a couple of xray machines at the airports, to
become corrupted in some way. (might need to verify this myself)

What you can try to do is open them up with a photo editing software
save them as bitmaps (BMP) then convert them again to jpegs (or leave
them as BMPs) and see if that fixes them up.

Hi - Did you ever resolve your problem with your distorted pictures and problems with your video clips? I'm having the exact same problem and I also have an HP Pavilion that is fairly new. Is the problem the computer or Windows Photo Gallery? HELP!
