Hi make sure that you're not running Windows 7 Starter or Home Basic as it doesn't support Personalization. Still you can change the theme though. See HowtoGeek;s post here.

Also, if you've different OS other than Home Basic or Starter, you might consider to check your system for missing components. See the detailed procedure here.

Tell me if your problem is solved.

If you're using a legal copy of Windows 7 Startre Edition and want to upgrade legally then you can use "Windows Anytime Upgrade: Windows 7 Starter to Home Premium" for this purpose. Visit this link for more info:-

If you're using a pirated copy then there is no other choice than formatting the PC & reinstalling a fresh copy of Windows 7 of your desired version.

@ankur.1992: Please don't spam now. Rather than quoting your issue again and again, you can tell us what problem you're facing with the solutions provided above?
Also, knowing that you're using either Home Basic/Starter of Windows 7, you cannot get themes. You can always use alternate version as suggested by @amandwvd180. Even if you don't understand how to use Personalization Panel, go here.

But for heavens sake, Don't SPAM here!

ankur.1992: Bro I have noticed that you write your mesage in the POST TITLE box so it ends up in being visible in the SUBJECT area.

This could distract people as your message is not visible properly & will be thus termed as SPAM.

Please write in appropriate places.

I have edited the above posts made by you for proper visibility.

Ok, as it's clear the message was not completely constructed, I'm sorry for seeing it as a spam, but it's not entirely my fault, u see.

Now to your problem. Just head over to Validate site of Microsoft to verify it's it's genuine or pirated. And rest assured, we can help you in both ways.

I'm really sorry for the way I was posting my replies.
I was unaware of the way to reply.

My windows Home Basic is a Gnuine copy.
Now what to do next?

Then download the Personalization Panel (link given above), or if your laptop/computer is over it's warranty, you can also install :ahem: full featured Windows 7. I'd not recommend to install Windows 7 Ultimate, till you're in warranty.

Thanks a lot!
BTW my laptop is still in warranty.

Then just use Personalization Panel. And if it solves your issue, add [solved] in the subject line.
