Can I change the Window 7 Starter Theme of my laptop?

Asked By dawnn fraser 10 points N/A Posted on - 05/19/2013

I have an Acer aspire notebook which I have bought two years ago. It is running on Window 7 starter operating system.

For two years, I’ve been seeing the same blue background image and it gets a bit old. I wanted to make it look more appealing and personalize it. The only thing I could change is the screen savers.

Is there a way I could change Windows 7 Starter Theme without shifting to window 7 premium?

Hi Dawnn,

In this version Microsoft made some changes in this field.

Personalization options are reduced to a minimum. But, still, you can do something to personalize it on your own way.

Right click on your desktop and then Personalize.

In this tab you can change your color scheme, some Windows sounds.

You can go on your gadgets tab and then select a gadget you want and resize it to 320 X 240.
