From: Christina L. on 7 Nov 2008 12:28 Does anyone know if there is a wallpaper "slideshow" program that doesn't need "adm. privilages" to install. Would be nice if Microsoft would have created such a nicity as part of their Windows software. Thanks Chris
From: Tony Sperling on 7 Nov 2008 13:22 Here is one that does what you want - I have no idea wether or not it actually runs on a 64bit OS, but at least it seems to come from a dependable source in a world where hope fills more space than trust.

From: Bobby Johnson on 7 Nov 2008 13:32 There definitely is. My sister-in-law has one on her Vista Home with a bunch of family pictures in it. Her son set it up so I can't tell you exactly what it is, but I am almost positive he did it with something that is already in Vista - no 3rd party program. Have you looked at the one in Vista titled 'Photos'? It looks to me like you can have it display pictures on your computer that are in a specific folder.

From: Christina L. on 7 Nov 2008 13:34 Thanks Tony but in your reply, I don't see where you want me to go get the download. Was there a "link" or attachment??

Thanks Bobby, but when I posted this question, I selected the option for "Windows XP Pro" - I don't have vista. "Bobby Johnson" wrote: > There definitely is.
