Default Display properties not right

My display properties box only shows the Screen Saver and Settings Tabs
at the top.
Themes, Desktop and Appearance tabs are missing.

I can live with that, Except the one setting I need to change is in the
desktop tab, I need the background pic to be centered and not Tile(ed).

Anyone with any suggestions.

Thanks in advance
Carl

Hi,

Scan your system for malware and other parasites. Here are some free
programs.

Adaware SE
http://www.lavasoftusa.com/support/download

Spybot - search and destroy
http://www.safer-networking.org/en/download/index.html

Trend Micro's Housecall
http://housecall.trendmicro.com/

Once your system is cleaned and free of parasites, go to Kelly's site and
get the registry fix.

Restore All Display Tabs (Line 285 on the right)

One important item I forgot, Kelly's web page link to remove the policy
restrictions for the Display Tabs.
