• The Desktop tab in the display properties freezes computer

  I have Windows XP, SP3. When I try to change the wallpaper by clicking on the Office tab lock. Nothing happens. If I try to close the display properties, I get a message saying that he does not, with RunDLL32.exe in the title bar. The other tabs in display properties work fine. I've run several virus and malware detection programs and they found nothing. No idea what's happening, and how can I solve this problem?

  I had the same problem. Finally I started to think: why did this happen? I searched the registry for "Wallpaper" and maybe one of the proposed mentions it's a timeout to 20000 in relationship with the module property of the wallpaper (which units I don't know), so I left the display properties > Desktop tab in the State "suspended" over lunch. When I came back to it the destop by bike through the regular options (so you can choose one of them). I then went through and find my own picture of a hummingbird bird, and it works fine now. Without doubt, I deleted the picture bird Hummingbird long ago and had forgotten this is the desktop wallpaper.

  I hope this helps.

• Additional tabs are missing from the display properties

  original title: display problems (broken display properties window)

  Well, I have a truckload of display problems, many of them are probably related, but I will address these one at a time. I'll start with my display properties.

  When I open the display properties, I get this little window:

  http://img.Photobucket.com/albums/V371/battousaiofnphiles/screencaps/BrokenControlpanel1.jpg

  Look at it carefully, it is supposed to look like this:

  http://img.Photobucket.com/albums/V371/battousaiofnphiles/screencaps/BrokenControlpanel2.jpg

  Now, whenever I start the computer I have to reinstall my display driver and reset my display properties. When you reset my 600x800px at 1440 x 900 screen, I have to select one click on the theme 'Apply' before I give myself the tabs to set different individual elements of the screen and click 'Apply' to effectively apply my desired settings.

  Now I have a Vid card for replacement in the mail which I think should solve the forced back on the display driver, but I'm confident that's not going to solve the problem of display properties broke.

  * EDIT *.
  I'm running on Windows XP Professional SP3.

  Original question is resolved. I open a prompt of commands and regsvr32 /i shell32 then restarted and enter regsvr32 themeui. My gfx card is always failing to start, but once started, the tabs are back where they belong.

  Start the computer in safe mode (press F8 continuously immediately after power and don't worry beeps when you press the button) and let it boot without a network.  Once there right click on the desktop and then click Properties.  Click settings and the value of the monitor mode (640 X 480) VGA or SVGA (800 X 600).  Accept the changes and restart the computer.  You should have a mediocre screen, but you should see it now.  Download and install the appropriate drivers for your video card in the laptop to the web site of the manufacturer of the laptop.  Install the drivers and then you should be able to set the display of the laptop to the correct native resolution for your computer monitor (must be in the documentation of the laptop).

  How can I fix that I don't want all my personal pictures listed as choice of wallpaper.

  Thank you very much

  Hi xelorwatch,

  The images that appear under display properties, the Office located in
  These folders:

  C:\Documents and Settings\nom utilisateur\Mes Documents\My Pictures
  C:\WINDOWS\Web\Wallpaper
  C:\Windows\Resources\Themes

  Here are some steps that you can try.

  Step 1:

  a. create another folder (under your user profile), remove pictures of 'my
  Photos' you want listed under background and photos of my
  folder, create a shortcut to the new folder.

  b. or create subfolders in "my pictures".

  Step 2:
  
  Do a System Restore to the point before the issue.

• How to remove images or themes from the list of display properties for selected wallpapers?

  Well they are. When I go into the Control Panel, click or select the display icon, I come to the display properties.  Kind of dumb pictures obtained in the list of display properties.  I want to remove them from the list.  I n my ending is never trying to clean my computer, I want to delete these images and selected icons.  I really don't remember adding photos to the list of display properties for desktop. But they are there

  You must move the image files where they are now (probably in my pictures). Windows XP retrieves files image from the following paths:

  C:\WINDOWS BMP files

  The files BMP, JPG, GIF, JPE, DIB, PNG, HTM from the following locations:

  C:\Windows\Web\Wallpaper
  C:\Documents and Settings\photos \My Documents\My [& ALL THE sub FOLDERS]
  C:\Documents and Settings\\Application Data\Microsoft\Internet explore
  C:\Program Files\Plus! \Themes [* & ALL subfolders *]

  So for example, if the 'silent pictures' are in your My Documents\My Pictures folder (or a folder in my pictures) and you want to keep them, just move them to the folder My Documents of parent instead. If you don't want to keep them, just delete the files.
