fuzzy pictures with media center Since I bought my new computer with windows 7 my old photo program will not work so I have been using the new one supplied with the computer, media center. My pictures are fuzzy with this program and I can't find anyway to do any modifications, sizing, manipulation, etc. of photos I import from my camera. darryl@sedonarental.com | My System Specs |

hi daryl, welcome to the forum.

once you have installed if you choose to, then right click a picture and select open with ,then select set default program then select windows live photo gallery, make sure the box is checked for always use this program
the install will install windows live essentials, choose the "select which programs to install" ,only the photo gallery if you choose. | My System Specs | | System Manufacturer/Model Number Hewlett packard/p6512uk OS Microsoft Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit 7600 CPU IIx4 amd athelon 635 processor Motherboard FOXCONN 2AA9 Memory 2x2gb Graphics Card ati radeon HD 5450 Sound Card (1) Realtek High Definition Audio (2) AMD High Definition Monitor(s) Displays samsung lcd tv 32" Screen Resolution 1360x 768 Keyboard wireless hp Mouse wireless Hp,optical PSU ?

Those should be OK. If they are still fuzzy with the FS Picture Viewer, post back and we'll explore why. | My System Specs | | System Manufacturer/Model Number HP, Dell, Gateway, Toshiba - 4 laptops and 2 desktops OS Vista, Windows7, Mint Mate, Zorin, Windows 8 CPU from 1.6GHz Duo to i7 Monitor(s) Displays 2x HP w2207 Keyboard with trackball - no mices Mouse Trackball mice Hard Drives 5x HDD, 7x SSD, 12x Externals Internet Speed DSL 6000 fuzzy pictures with media center problems?
