I finally found the fix for previewing a .PSD file in thumbnail view using winXP, although the problem isn't relative to Windows itself, and not everyone had this problem, but a few poeple I know have. It seems that if you have a fresh install of Photoshop CS (versus an update), you lose a particular DLL file named psicon.dll (why Photoshop chose to remove this feature doesn't make sense). You can download the DLL file from:
http://www.dlldump.com/download-dll-files.php/dllfiles/P/psicon.dll/download.html
And then place the DLL in C:\Program Files\Common Files\Adobe\Shell\ and it should start previewing again. Hope this helps anyone else with the same problem.

I have all my images in one folder and and when doing photo work I like to just open the folder and view as thumbnails, plus I didn't know....hahaha
how would I use adobe bridge? Does it let me view my photos as thumbnails or do I still have to open a progam to view the PSD files? Also, I can't seem to find it?What We Do In Life, Echoes In Eternity.... -
Excellent!
This has bugged me for months, just thought XP couldn't read them to show thumbnails.
Thanks!
