if you are using windows starter, the only thing you can change your desktop background is to use third party software like Oceanis Change Background for windows 7.
or upgrade your windows into ultimate or professional inorder for you to change your desktop background.
Hope it helps.
The Acer Apsire One series only supports up to 1.5gb of RAM. This includes the onboard 512mb, plus a single 1 gig stick. I have this same model, and had the same problem.
Yup...this is a "feature" of Windows 7 Starter, which is what came with your netbook. It doesn't allow for changing the desktop background.
I have to also point out that this "non-feature" is locked into the End User License Agreement (EULA) which specifically prohibits hacks to change the background. The only "legal" option is to upgrade to Windows 7 Home.
Having said all that, I could not stop you from Googling "How to change Windows 7 Starter wallpaper" and finding several easy hacks (which I am told) work well to allow a change of wallpaper. That, however, is at your own risk etc.
nothing works i tried setting my background and i even right-clicked the picture & clicked the set as background & it didnt do anything the picture stayed the same as before. Can anyone give me any advise on how to fix this problem , Like is it even possible to change the background on an acer computer ?
