Viewing RAW files

So now I have a sh!t load of RAW files and I need to decide which ones to stitch.
How can I review them (which software) before stitching to decide which panoramas to go for? I don't have a MAC.
As always thank you for your response

Cheapest and from what I heard one of the fastest viewers for PC is Google Picasa. You can even do some editing.
picasa.google.com
I assume you also have Bridge installed if you have Photoshop.
It is not as visible any more in Photoshop CS4 but if you go to the file menu and choose "Browse in Bridge" it should open.

Thanks Hans.
I don't have photoshop CS4 anymore. It was over my head as a newbie.
I have Elements and Illustrator.
I'll definitely try Google Picasa.
ps. we redid the Old Mill with 5 bracket shots to make sure it will look its absolute best.

110% 5 bracketed shots with no exception. I pray he gets the ISO right.
One thing that has jhappened is that some of the RAW files has become corrupt (just a few). Apparently you can take a -2 and take it up one exposure to -1 so you still have 5 bracketed shots to work with.
Let's see if I can get anywhere near your quality

Jorgen, check the software CD of your camera, there should be a raw viewer and software to convert your raw images.
Or have a look at Lightroom from Adobe

I did notice that one of the Raw was corrupt. Must say I never had one single corrupt file from any of my Canons I had since 2002.
I once had a corrupt card with all files unavailable but using the software provided by Lexar I got it all back.
