I can't change my desktop from a black background to a picture(Even if I Right click the picture from a website and put it as background). Whenever I log out though I can see the pic I put for a few seconds, but as soon as the computer is loaded it goes back to black. I wanna get back the the option that is greyed out on the desktop tab under background.

Go to Start-Run and type "services.msc" without quotes and press ok

From the list select Themes and check whether it is disabled and stopped, if disabled, enable and start it
6 rules to be happy:
Free your heart from hatred; Free your mind from worries; Live simply; Expect less; Give more & always have me as Ur Friend.

Thanks, I'm gonna try that. Whenever I click run > services.msc the window juss' closes itself. It stays up for a few seconds.

dear merch,
click on this link:- http://www.kellys-korner-xp.com/xp_tweaks.htm
go to Line 128. Restore Desktop and Screensaver Tabs then click on it a windows would come up
click on save and save it on the desktop and then run it,it would ask u whether you want to add this info to the registry click on yes and restart the system. its a registry tweak and that should solve the prob.
thanks

now merch had you installed any software after which you started getting this prob.for ex spysherrif and just curious have u tried system restore.
u can also try :- click on start->run->type regedit->enter
click on the folder
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\System
"Wallpaper"=SZ:C:\WINDOWS\desktop.html
delete this key(I suggest backing it up first),
hope this works.
