Thumnail viewer for G9 Raw images in Windows XP

[dougsturgess]

I can view RAW images in Windows because I've downloaded the RAW thumnail viewer but it doesn't let you view RAW files from the G9.

Has anyone heard when there will be a fix for this?

Thanks.

Same setup, same problem ;) I get round it using Irvanview.

Because the Canon page is so lame and you might not be directed to it, here is the name of the file you want (yes, it says Vista but that is what comes up when XP is chosen):

RC120UPD_7L.exe - Canon RAW Codec 1.2 for Windows Vista

I installed it but Windows Explorer still doesn't show the thumbnail picture. I even tried reinstalling the Windows Raw Viewer after that and nothing changed.

Did you restart your machine?

ArcSoft have a free thumbnail add-on for windows explorer. I found it yesterday and it works perfectly on my system.
