problem with music files on my new windows 7 pc?

i have a lot of music on an external drive

on my old pc that ran on vista all albums were nicely in alphabetical order and all had the cover art because my old reliable machine blew out because of a power surge

ive just changed over to this new machine which runs off windows 7

the files are no longer in order and many of my files no longer have the cover art on them

with the old vista machine files could be easily be rearranged by dragging file into a space between others, this machine doesnt let you do that it only seems to let you drag one file into another

when it comes to the cover art problem with the old system it was easily done by right clicking opening up properties and choosing a file in the customize tab this doesnt work on my new 7 machine

to most this might seem trivial but i am really OCD when it comes to music and i need to know how to get it all back in the right order with its cover art intact

any advice would be really helpfull because im nearly out of medication

Update:

oh well it was worth a try

ask a question and what do i get a funny c*nt

and a bit of spam

    I wasn't going to answer however...it might not be the ideal solution for you, however have you considered installing Zune Software and using that as your music player and organiser?

    http://www.zune.net/en-us/products/software/downlo...

    I would highly recommend it even if you haven't got a Zune, it's far better than the default Media Player and will enable you to view all your music in alphabetical order in either Artist, Album or Song View, plus it'll automatically download all your album art.

    Again, might not be the response you were looking for, but it's just my recommendation :)
