Disappearing wallpaper

DIME
My wallpaper background keeps disappearing. After I close the internet browser, reboot, or even leave the computer running for a while, it just vanishes, leaving a solid black background.

I've run Malwarebytes' Malware Protection scan a few times and it says I have no maleware. I've made sure the computer has a clean boot, so no third-party programs are doing it.

Why is this happening and how can I fix it?

I have Windows Vista, by the way.
 
Well, I'm going to try to install the service pack 2 and see how things go.

I swear though, I googled like crazy and couldn't find anything. Oh well. I really hope this works.

Thanks man!
 
Welp... I can't get service pack 2 because I don't have service pack 1. I can't get service pack 1 because my version of Vista isn't "Genuine."
 
It looks like your computer thinks you didn't buy your copy of Windows, hence why your screen keeps going black. I think it will say that your copy of windows is not genuine at the bottom right hand of the screen. You might try doing a system restore or even a factory image restore and see if that helps.
