    My guess is that Windows may treat these thumbnails as part of the icon cache, in which case a reboot should clear up the glitch...

    Look in C:\Windows\Web\Wallpaper and make sure they are still there.

    Could be Photoshop CS5 has taken over some default action from windows.

    So, what happens if you change to one of those themes?

    Are the walls available?
