How do I keep my desktop backgrounds?

I want to keep my desktop background picture but after 10 minutes, the background goes black? It used to work when I had windows XP, but now my laptop is vista.. Is there anything I can download or do to make it stay without having to pay for anything? Thanks.|||Simple answer to that is the Blank Screen screen saver is kicking in after 10 minutes.





Control Panel 鈻?Personalisation 鈻?Click on Screen Saver in the bottom right hand corner 鈻?br>

A Screen Saver Settings panel will come up 鈻?The rest of it is self explanatory as to setting the time limit and other screen savers.|||It sounds like you haven't got a genuine copy of Vista. I had this problem on my computer, exactly the same, the screen would just go black. You need to make sure you definately have a genuine copy of Vista, and if you have then you need to ocntact Microsoft, and if not you will have to buy a new genuine one and reinstall it onto your laptop. Good luck :)|||Difficult to tell from your question but it sounds like your screensaver is kicking in. Right click on a part of your desktop without any icons, click on personalise on the menu, choose screensaver and then in screensaver settings the 'wait' time should say 10 minutes - change that to a longer period of time.|||Go to 'My Pictures' - find an image - right click on it - a dropdown will appear - click on 'Set as background' - left click this - your image will appear almost immediately as the PC background picture. You are on a 'screensaver' at the moment.|||It is probably happening because your screen saver settings need changing,if it is set to come on after 10 min's of inactivity and you also haven't set a chosen screen saver it will go black.|||Take any picture to " PAINT " put it to the size of your laptop then save it to a wallpapers file .|||i guess its not a genuine copy, so juz remove the current version and install vista again this would help you.. and remember to take backups before removing..


Also make sure tat u install a genuine copy...
