Hi Gabriel,
Mercuri is correct. You cannot change your background with Windows 7 Starter. However, you can use Windows Anytime Upgrade to upgrade to another edition of Windows 7 that will allow you to change your desktop background and get even more features and functionality out of your OS.

YES BECAUSE YOU HAVE WINDOWS 7 BASIC NEED HOME PREMIUM OR HIGHER!
It’s because you’re using Windows 7 Starter, which does not have personalization options. There are some hacks to get around this, but I wouldn’t recommend it as they have mixed results. It would be better to upgrade to a better version of Windows 7.
