Open your picture in "Windows Picture and Fax Viewer". (Double click the picture)
Then you right click on the picture, and choose "Set as Desktop Background".
This should work. If not, let me know.

You're supposed to click ok to select the file, and then click the OTHER ok button to apply the settings and close the window.
