I have no idea what to do, so far any advice ive been given hasnt worked. Its when i go into google images and type in something all the thumbnails remain blank so i cant see the images (although once in a blue moon they do show up), if i click one of the blank thumbnails it takes me to the picture but its hard going to go through every thumbnail for the pic you want. I have deleted all the history but that hasnt worked.

Anyone had similiar problems and know what to do? or any computer boffins about?

how long has the problem been there bjk - have you tried a system restore?

I have had the computer since March (brand new from dell) and its never worked properly since i got it. Its never bothered me too much until now when i really wanna use the google image.

I haven`t done a system restore tev. Im not great with computers and wouldnt know where to start, a bit scared to mess about with it in case i lose stuff

Windows Vista huh?

That explains it.

I don't know what else to suggest. I'm assuming that you deleted temporary internet files whn you did the history?

Someone on here will prob be able to help (there are a few eggspurts about)

failing that, your left with the last resort option of formatting the HD and reinstalling vista (or better still, sticking XP on it)

stupid question but have you tried typing in ' Google images not showing up ' in Google? Im pretty sure your problem isnt the first time this sort of thing has happened.

There may well be a setting in the advanced section of Internet Explorer "tools/internet options/ and something has been unticked.

There is a section under multimedia in the aforementioned options screen that has 'show pictures' with a tick beside it.

Has yours?
Report blackjackking • December 1, 2009 5:51 PM GMT
yes preist, it has the show pictures ticked. I have tried it ticked and unticked.

One thing you could do is download the latest version of macromedia Flash player and Java, these could be responsble

I can't help you with Google but here's a tip.

Try Bing for images. It's by far the best image search engine (Google doesn't even get close).

BING it :-)
