Background Colours
Ok, so I got on the computer, started up the Internet, and noticed the backgrounds weren't working. The text colours (like active links etc.) and normal images were working, but not any colours. Same with folders on the Desktop. So I tried to fix it, on the main Desktop I right clicked and went to properties, and changed the modified theme to Windows XP. Before I did that, the Folders looked something like this...

And after they looked like...

However, the Internet still looks like this...

So on Internet Explorer I went to Tools>Internet Options>General>Acessibility> And all the checkboxes were unchecked. So now no colours are working and I don't know what to do, does anybody have an idea?
