<p>Do you mean the slideshow, or the full screen image view? Does the 'image viewer' mode work (split screen thumbnails/image) ?<br>

With the latter I never had any problem (on 2 Vista systems), with the slideshow I've had problems with the transition effects. It turned out to be a problem with Quicktime, and updating quicktime solved the issue (or disabling the transition effects).<br>

Do you get any errormessages or something like that on screen?</p>

<p>Wow, so weird.<br>

First thing I'd try is clearing ViewNX's cache. Go to 'Edit', 'Options'. Under 'General', there is a group for cache, with a button 'Clear'. Give that a try.<br>

If that doesn't help, do you have a second machine with View NX to test these same NEFs on? It could theoretically also be the NEFs. If you've got no access to a second machine, another thing to try: in the quick adjustement, change something (exposure, white balance), and apply that. It should cause ViewNX to create a new preview.</p>

<p>Files from DVD can be a problem when trying the edits (since the changes cannot be written back to the file).</p>

<p>In that case, I would do what Arthur suggests; I've had to use Nikon support once for a Nikon ViewNX issue, and was very pleased with the speed of response and the way it was handled (was Nikon UK).</p>

<p>Ian,</p>

<p>I've run View NX 1.40 on my Vista laptop and am currently running it on the same laptop with Windows 7 installed. Have you tried:</p>

<p>Re-downloading 1.4?<br>

Tried it on the same computer, but under another user profile?<br>

You may have a corrupted user profile. I've seen this cause strange things with both XP and Vista.</p>

<p>Good luck - Mark</p>

<p>I had issues with fullscreen viewing in ViewNX on one of my computers running XP, and the problems resolved once I updated the .NET framework. I don't think Vista SP1 comes with .NET framework 3.5 SP1 or 1.1 SP1. I'm not sure if this is causing your problem, but it might be worthwhile to give it a shot.</p>

<p>3.5 SP1 can be found <a href="http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?familyid=AB99342F-5D1A-413D-8319-81DA479AB0D7&displaylang=en">here</a><br>

1.1 SP1 can be found <a href="http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?familyid=A8F5654F-088E-40B2-BBDB-A83353618B38&displaylang=en">here</a></p>

<p>If the bootstrapper isn't working, you might consider downloading the update using the "Full Package" link halfway down the webpage.<br>

If installing 1.1 gives you grief, you might refer to <a href="http://kbase.gfi.com/showarticle.asp?id=KBID003100">this webpage</a></p>

<p>Hi. I have just experienced the same problem as Ian after installing ViewNX 1.4. The viewer will not load the NEF file - it flashes black and then disappears. I have trawled the net and done everthing in my power to solve this. I have uninstalled, removed all Nikon registry entries and folders then re-installed from my original disk. That didn't work, so I did all the above again and downloaded 1.4 from Nikon's website, still the same problem. I have updated Quick time, and I have .NET framework 3.5 installed. I can't find any other reference to this problem on the net unfortunately.<br>

I'm profoundly disappointed. I've just come back from Asia where I was travelling for 6 months and have over 5000 photos in RAW and now I can't process the photos - ViewNX is the only program I know where you can alter white balance and exposure before converting to JPEGs and I don't want to fork out for CS3 (I run Photoshop 7 and it's fine for my needs). ANY FEEDBACK ON THIS WOULD BE GREATLY APPRECIATED. THANKS.</p>
