A display device having electronic album function and the method thereof is disclosed. The present invention includes an Electronic Photo Frame (EPF) controller which checks the existence of the memory and reads image data from the memory if any, an interface device which converts the interface format of the image data from the EPF controller, transmits it to main controller and sends interrupts to the main controller when there is a transmission error, and a counter which counts the number of interrupts transmitted to the main controller. When the number of interrupts with the same clock exceeds a predetermined number, the main controller ignores the interrupts, resets the interface device and reloads the image data from the memory. Otherwise, the main controller performs the regular interrupt routine.
