OK, let's slow down a bit. I'm at a bit of a disadvantage, because I don't use Vista.

You have confirmed that your files are in JPEG format, which is good. So they should be readable by other computers or the store's kiosk. The question is, why can't other computers read the files? Either there's a problem with your disk, or they don't recognize the file type.

The fact that Paint can't open the pictures may not mean anything. By default, Paint is installed without GIF and JPEG capability. Why, I don't know. And I don't recall how to add it in.

OK, do this: Load the CD into a computer that you say can't read the files. Open the CD in Windows Explorer. (You can do this by double-clicking on My Computer, then clicking on the CD drive.) Can you see any files on the disk? If you can't, then the disk is most likely bad and you'll need to burn a new one. (You may have to open a few folders to get down to the actual files.)

Now, if the computer can see the files, see what the extensions are of the files. That's the part of the file name that follows the "dot" or period. If you don't see an extension, then you have to turn them on. Go to Tools->Folder Options. Under the View tab, you should see an option called "Hide Extensions for known file types". Turn this option off.

If the files have extension ".JPG", pretty much any computer should be able to read them. But if they have the extension ".jpeg", it's likely that older PCs and picture kiosks won't recognize the file name, and the files will need to be renamed to work. Renaming is horrible in Windows Explorer, but can be done very easily in an MS-DOS window using the "rename" command. (e.g "rename *.jpeg *.JPG")

Today's Featured Article - Usin Your Implements: Bucket Loader - by Curtis Von Fange. Introduction: Dad was raised during the depression years of the thirties. As a kid he worked part time on a farm in Kansas doing many of the manual chores. Some of the more successful farmers of that day had a new time saving device called a tractor. It increased the farm productivity and, in general, made life easier because more work could be done with this 'mechanical beast'. My dad dreamed that some day he would have his own tractor with every implement he could get. When he rea ... [Read Article]
