my desktop background has been disabled

Hi,everything has been fine for several months with my new
computer.Three days ago,my background went from a family picture i had
posted there to all black with just the vista icons and gadgets on the
right side.The toolbar is also Ok.When i try to fix it in the control
panel under personal appearances,the response tells me that the feature
has been disabled.I have been unable to restore my background.Any help
would be appreciated,
Thanks,Jim
