There is a version of Windows 7 that won't let you change the desktop background. I recommend using this program if the problem continues: Oceanis Change Background Windows 7.

Yeah If you have windows 7 starter you will not be able to change your desktop background without a third party program which I would not recommend because it will slow your PC considerably.
