JPG files cross windows 7 to XP platform

As a side note, try using a third party viewer such as Infranview, I've used it for years, at least since Windows 95.

The title on the home page reads, " ...one of the most popular viewers worldwide!"
and for a good reason.

Obviously still none the wiser of what is going wrong but have now tried Irfanview, loaded one of the problem pictures and just resaved it has cleared the problem so at least I have now have a way of repairing but what caused the problem I may never solve.

Anyway thanks to all of you for your clues and assitance

fyi the film scanner is a Veho and it is certainly good enough for my needs. main problem being taht teher are not film holders for old 126 type film.

Well its good to hear the problem is resolved. I still think it was a problem with the Arcsoft software and think scanning using different software would prove this. You can use Irfanview for this. Just open the prog. click File
click "Select Twain Source". Select your scanner. Click file and then Aquire/Batch Scanning. That will open your scanning interface as normal and not use Arcsoft!

You can also use Infranview to do batch processing, so you don't have to resave your files one at a time. The wesite has a FAQ and forums to help if you need that.
