2. Go to “HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Desktop\” folder and click on it
3. On the right hand side find there are a bunch of entries. Find the key named “Wallpaper” and double click on it and put the path of the picture you want as your new wallpaper (example path is “C:\Users\Bob\Pictures\new_wallpaper.jpg”)
4. Right-click on the “Desktop” folder in regedit that you found in step 2 and click Permissions.
5. Click “Advanced”
6. Go to “Owner” tab, highlight your name in the box that says ʽChange owner toʼ ( There are only two choices the other is Administrator )… once your user name is highlighted click “OK”

well i tried this and think i went abit wrong somewhere ticking and unticking wrong boxes and now everytime i start the computer and log onto main account the screen is just black and only the mouse courser visiable and moves around but won't let me right click or anything and i've tried all the buttons as well and nothing.
if i go on to guest account though the screen comes up fine though and everything is ok it's just when i log on to main account.
is there a way of uninstalling reinstalling windows 7 starter from the start up screen and how do i do it.
Please help
