Tip
You might have Windows 7 Starter, please be advised that Windows
7 Starter does not include Personalization feature for changing desktop background, window colors, or sound schemes.
However,
there is a solution for the desktop wall paper for Windows 7 Starter. You have to deal with the Registry. Please read my notes below.
