Resolved Question

Can't see images on PC, was fine yesterday

by Sep 10, 2011 9:31PM PDT

Booted up today and got the 'volume is dirty' blue screen, let checkdisk run and rebooted. I can get to pages and see all written format but no logos, photos, images, etc. Audio is working.
Any ideas? Running WIN XP on an old Dell.Was fine yesterday aft.

Seems the chkdsk couldn't repair everything and deleted something. Things to try:
1. Another browser (Internet Explorer?)
2. Reinstall Firefox.

Did all that and then checked the Firefox options menu . For some reason 'Load images automatically' became unchecked. Voila! Thanks for your reply Happy

Good job. Thanks for telling.

Such a setting made a lot of sense when connected with dial-up. I've got broadband for 10 years at least, so I didn't even realize it still was there.
