- Minimize all your programs so you are looking at your wallpaper. You can do this quickly by clicking on the show desktop icon that is located by the start button.

- Right click on the desktop and select the properties option

- Once you have completed step two, you will see a new window like the one below

- To change the wallpaper, click on the Desktop tab

- Once you are here, you can change the wallpaper to any that you have on your computer. After you have picked your picture, you can change its Position if needed. Just click on the down arrow and select Center, Tile, or Stretch. If you click the Apply button you can see what's it's going to look like.
When you are done, click the OK button and the window will close.
- To change the screen saver, click on the Screen Saver tab

- You can change your screen saver by click the down arrow beside your list. All screen savers that are on your computer are listed here. You can also change how long it takes to start and if you want it to password protect when the screen saver stops. For some screen savers there are settings you can change also.
When you are done, click the OK button and the window will close.
- To change the screen size, click on the Settings tab

- You can change the screen size by moving the down arrow from Less or More. The closer you get to the Less option, the bigger your screen is. There is also a Color Quality option but, I suggest you don't change it. If you change the size of your screen, you may be asked if you want to do this and you will have to say YES to accept the change.
Flat screens look better with higher resolutions. If your screen looks "fuzzy", try moving the resolution towards the More side.
When you are done, click the OK button and the window will close.
