[size=3]Hi, I have windows XP. My desktop will not show my wallpaper I pick for it. It will only show a single color background. When I go to display properties it wont show any preview except a blue or red screen. All the thumbnails of pictures available have little red x's instead. It also does this when I visit some websites also. It refuses to show a picture just the little red x. Any help or suggestions would be great.
