Right click on the Windows Desktop select Personalize and select Background.
If you are trying to import your own pictures you'll need to select BROWSE and point to the location of your files.

Mods -sorry for double-post.

Try running IE7-no add-ons mode.

Click Start, and then type Internet Explorer in the Start Search box. 2.Click Internet Explorer (No Add-Ons). Internet Explorer 7 opens without add-ons, toolbars, or plug-ins. 3. Test Internet Explorer to verify that it works correctly.

will that just change the pic? or the whole theme? I know in XP you can change everything about it, like the curser and way it all looks.

That will just change the background. But the other options are located in the same PERSONALIZE menu. Theme, Mouse pointers, screensaver, etc...

The difference between VISTA and XP is that they have spread all the video options in VISTA instead of lumping them together as in XP.

CrazyLilCajun · October 28th, 2007

oh ok thanks mmarsh! im gonna have to try that.

mmarsh · October 29th, 2007
