  Windows Picture and Fax viewer hangs when I try to preview certain images.
  
  It just says "Drawing.. please wait".
  
  Then it doesn't respond anymore.
  
  But it doesn't happen in safe mode..
  
  is this a hardware problem?

  Copy the picture to an empty folder and open it.

  I made a new folder on the desktop, then I copied the picture into the empty folder. I tried to preview it using the P&F viewer,
  
  Hangs at "Generating preview..."

  How big is your file?
  
  If it's more than 100KB, open it with MS Paint... the previewer is full of problems...
