Can't view .CRW files in Lightroom 3

For some reason I can't view any .CRW files in Lightroom 3. These .CRW files are about 6 years old from an older model Canon Digital Rebel. I'm using the latest version of Adobe Camera Raw, which is 6.2. I can view them fine in CS5. Any help? Does LR not support CRW files?

    You might want to convert the files to DNG format if you can't read them in LR. You might also want to look to see if your camera is listed as supported.

    BTW, I'm not a LR3 user.

    Yep. It is supported. Just checked it here: http://www.adobe.com/products/photoshop/cameraraw.html
    The camera is a 300D. I'd rather not convert if i don't have to. I wonder if it's just a change to a setting or something.

    Have you go t all the updates for LR3?

    LR3 should support the same cameras as ACR 6.2

    Make sure you've applied all the updates. If you have, then there doesn't seem to be a reason why you shouldn't be able to read the files.
