I recently "replaced" the default background that came with my computer (the
picture that shows up on the desktop). How do I get the default background
back? I can't find anything to help me with this.

Thanks!

Hi raccoongirl

This will show you how to change the desktop background wallpaper to
image you select. The default wallpaper should be under the Pictur
Location "Windows Wallpaper". From within there, just select the defaul
image

Hope this helps you

Right-click on the Desktop,. and choose Personalize
Click "Desktop Background"
Select "Windows Wallpapers" from the drop-down
Under "Vistas" section, select the default Vista wallpaper (img24.jpg)
Click OK.
