| Do you know which picture you want to use? Do you know where it is located on your computer? If yes, then all you need to do is go thru Windows Explorer, select the picture with one (not two) left-click of the mouse, then right-click it once and select "Set as Desktop Background". |

| Hi goldy, You should be able to Right Click on a picture of your choice and choose Set as desktop background from the list of options. If you want to change it to one that is provided in your computer do the following: In XP: In Vista and Windows 7: See if that helps. |

| By "start up" picture, do you mean your account picture that appears on your welcome screen when you start your computer? If so, and I think you have windows 7, right click on your desktop, choose "personalize" and on the left side, choose "change account picture". You can use the generic ones in that window, or "browse" and choose one of your own. Jean |

| Jean, I tried your instructions, but 'browse' is grayed out - what can I do? |

| @kayjones, What Operating System? Check to see if the Service is set for Automatic. Here's how: 1. Right Click My Computer (XP) or Computer (Vista/Win7) and select Manage. Let us know if that helps. |
