    Desktop solid color settings in Windows 7


    Hi,
    Could someone tell me how to change the Hue, Sat and Lum settings for Solid color Black (desktop background) in registry?
    I have applied solid color black and want to set the Hue, Sat and Lum to 160, 0, 1 through registry.
    I do tried changing the value HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Colors\ Background, but it doesn't reflect.
    Appreciate your help!

    Hi and welcome to SevenForums,
    Have you tried a high contrast theme ?

    I don't know how to tweak the registry or why you would either but have you thought to simply use a image in the color you want :/
    Cheers.

    You have to change it in the Catalyst Control Center. Right click on the desktop.
