A few weeks ago I turned on my computer and found my desktop background was
black. I tried to change it back to the picture I originaly had, but it wouldn't change. I can only change it to a colour. My daughter recently installed a sims game, but the graphics are fuzzy. This never used to happen before, it has only started since my desktop background went black. Is there something wrong with my screen? please help |

Have you tried a "system restore" to a date before this black screen appeared?

Hi,
Have you tried reinstalling or updating your display adapter/video driver? Do this from the manufacturer's site, not Windows Update. -- Best of Luck, Rick Rogers, aka "Nutcase" - Microsoft MVP http://mvp.support.microsoft.com/ Windows help - www.rickrogers.org My thoughts http://rick-mvp.blogspot.com "confused" wrote in message ...

Can you tell me if any of these ideas worked since the same thing happened to
my desktop background after my system crashed. Thanks. Lorri "Rick Rogers" wrote: Hi, Have you tried reinstalling or updating your display adapter/video driver?
