Media Gallery stuck on "Please wait.." (Solved)

Hey all,
Edit: Solved!

I just opened up my media gallery and it keeps saying "Please wait" and no pictures load. Ive tried restarting the phone and if I quickly click on the icon I can see all my pictures for about 5 seconds and then it goes to "Please wait.."

The photos dont appear on Phone tools, however I can see them all on the memory card and chkdsk of the memory card shows no problems.

Is there any database file I need to delete to make the phone re-index the photos or something to solve the problem?

EDIT: No worries, I solved the problem by deleting the most recently taken photo via USB. I presume it was somehow corrupted (even though it opened fine on the PC).
 
I've had this happen a time or two.
I find if I back out of the gallery for a min or two then go back in its all better
Or hookup to a computer, mount then unmount the USB Drive let it prepare the SD Card before unplugging then unhook and go into gallery and it works.
