I am setting up a new computer for my mother with Vista (I run XP on mine) and I am having problems with personalizing the desktop and internet printing. When I try to personalize the Desktop background, it will only permit me to install a solid color. I select wallpaper and click on a picture, but then it just reverts to a solid color. Any ideas what I am doing wrong? Also, the display fonts on the desktop icons and in Windows Mail is really small. I have selected the largest font settings available, but it is still really too small for my mother to read. Finally, for the bonus question, I am not able to print a page from the internet on her HP Deskjet F380. I spoke with HP and they had me re-download their Smart Web Printing software, but it still does not work. I installed Firefox and I can print okay from there, as well as from the computer itself, but not IE. HP has been of no help. Any ideas out there? Thanks. Jack
