Win 7 64bit prof. can only personalize two backgrounds not others
I am running windows 7 64bit professional. I typically change my desktop background seasonally. Went to switch from Spring to Summer and it failed - desktop background would not change. Clicked on Windows 7 default screen and that worked. Clicked on my Spring background and it also worked. Clicked on all my other backgrounds and no change. I have read and followed EVERY suggestion I can find via Google searches and none of them work; system restore, service.msc, transparency enabled check, sfc /scannow (4 times), Malicious Software Removal Tool, updated all my drivers, tried to do a repair from my installation DVD but the system said it couldn't recognize the DVD (don't ask my why, it its the same one I installed Win 7 with)! I have tried every single suggestion out there... all to no avail. I am at a loss. I have no idea why I can change 2 background images, but not any of the other ones that I used to change all the time. Oh, and a full re-install is not an option as the customization and program re-installs would take me months to remember how I did them in the first place and re-create them... especially all my custom icons. Help. Please.
