Anyone else having problems with changing desktop background?
I have been having problems with my Windows 7 PC recently in which I would get a BSOD, then Windows would reboot with the message "Windows has recovered from an unexpected shutdown". The system offered no reason as to why my computer was crashing so I was a bit stumped.
Over the Christmas period I changed my desktop background to a static Christmas theme from the previous rotation of pictures every two hours - and guess what - the BSOD's stopped! (and started again when I reverted back). Anyone else having this problem?

Sounds like someone wrote some bad code. Don't run the two hour rotation software.

If you want to rotate backgrounds, try DisplayFusion
