Photo Display Issues - Nikon Coolpix L18

[jaglows3]

I've been having a minor problem with my Nikon Coolpix L18.

When scrolling through pictures on the camera, images will often be displayed for about a second. Then the screen goes black, and displays an error message. The error message says that the picture is not in a recognizable format. The pictures were taken with the same camera, so I'm not sure what to make of the problem. Also, this problem comes and goes. It seems to affect certain pictures for a while, but then goes away. Then it comes back and affects different pictures, and so on...

Anyone have any idea what might be causing this problem?

I appreciate any input.

if the camera is under warranty, use the warranty, if not I would say that the life expectancy is questionable
