Try opening it using whatever photo editor you have.

 

If you can do that then do a 'Save As'. In the dialog box choose the JPG type.

Sometimes there can be confusion caused by the file extension: .JPEG or .JPG ... you could try changing from one to the other see if that helps.

If you downloaded it from google image search that sometimes causes that problem. Save it as .bmp instead, open it in MS paint, then use file >saveas to save it as a jpg.

I thought that altered the quality of the pic?

Not noticeably. Just had to do the same thing after googling an image. Couldnt see any difference.
