To change the desktop background
1. Open Desktop Background by clicking the Start button , clicking
Control Panel, clicking Appearance and Personalization, clicking
Personalization, and then clicking Desktop Background.

2. Click the picture or color you want for your desktop background.

If the picture you want to use is not in the list of desktop background
pictures, click the Picture location down arrow to view other
categories, or click Browse to search for the picture on your computer.
When you find the picture you want, double-click it. It will become your
desktop background and appear in the list of desktop backgrounds.

3. Under How should the picture be positioned, choose to have the
picture fit the screen, tile, or be centered on the screen, and then
click OK.

Just right-click on the empty Desktop after you have booted into Vista,
select Personalise.
