Go to Start, Find, Files or Folders, search for normal.dot on your local hard drives, right-click it and select Open (double-clicking it will just open a new doc, not the template), make all changes you want to be standard, then save it to same location and name.

Next time you open Word, it will have all these changes set as default.
