Windows 7 Starter Edition How to Change Desktop Background

[hondaf17]

I just purchased an Asus Netbook Eee PC and realize that the Windows 7 Starter that comes with it will not allow me to change the desktop background. Anybody have any solid ideas or know of any free software out there for download so I can change the background? Any input is appreciated. Thanks.

Try this. It's for basic but may work for starter.

Thanks for posting, but unfortunately that didn't work. Any other ideas?

It can can not be done by Windows native configuration.

Search the web for the term "starter changing background", there are variety of 3rd party solutions, choose the one that you are comfortable with.

As usual with such issues, YMMV.
