All aspects of fax works OK except I cannot preview the document before
sending or be able to open an already sent fax. Trying to open to view
reverts to the desktop.

Many thanks

Try removing and re-adding the fax service.

This is done under Control Panel Add/Remove programs. Click on
Add/Remove Windows Components. Locate Windows fax services in the list
and uncheck it. Follow on-screen prompts. Restart Windows. Return to the
same location and re-check the Fax Services box.

Let us know.

There are many possible causes for this problem. Most often, this problem
arises because some other imaging application that you installed has set
itself as the default viewer for TIF files. To view faxes from the Fax
Console, the Windows Imaging and Fax viewer must be your default viewer for
TIF files. You can easily restore that setting in Windows Explorer > Folder
Options. File Types. For most users the command line should read:

"rundll32.exe <drive>:\WINDOWS\system32\shimgvw.dll,ImageView_Fullscree n %1"

Another common cause of this problem is firewall software Trojan horse
rules. The most common is one that ships with Norton Internet Security.
Details on that on are available here:

Barry or anyone:

Did you solve your problem? If so could you let me know what to do mine
problem is as follows below (sounds the same as yours)
At the complete Fax Wizard, I select preview fax, then a 2 windows pop up,
top one saying The fax preview cannot be displayed, I then select the ok
button and read the bottom box which says, Error PntVideo, DRV not found or
not enough memory. How can I fix this?

I am sorry but I just do not know how to find a lot of things in order to fix
a problem,
Where is the Windows Explorer - Folder? If I find that then what would I do
if the line does not read what you have below.

Carolyn

Windows Explorer > Folder
Options. File Types. For most users the command line should read:

"rundll32.exe <drive>:\WINDOWS\system32\shimgvw.dll,ImageView_Fullscree n %1"

You should be able to scroll down the list of file types, find TIF files,
then examine the program used for the "Open" command.

That's your problem. TIF files need to be set to use the Windows Picture and
Fax viewer.
It's all documented here:

Ok I highlighted
Tif Corel Photo-paint 4.0 picture
opens with corel paint
Clicked on change and changed it too: Windows Picture and Fax Viewer

Now reads as:
Extension TIF File Types TIF File
Opens with Windows Picture and Fax Viewer

Is this correct? DO I have to restart XP windows or do anything else before
I go and try to view a fax?

Thank you for your patience

It's always good to restart whenever you've made a system change. That
should take care of it.

Well I just viewed my first fax since getting a new CPU in July. I will
print and use what I just learned from you for future reference.
Thank You for having the patience to stay with me. Next on Monday I have to
find out why I cannot restore my system to an earlier restore point.
