Answer 1

You can't do that in the hockey section. Why are you here?

Answer 2

Right click on the desktop. Click on properties. Go to the settings you want to change and just figure out what they were on. Select your screensaver again. Select your wallpaper again. Done.

Wow...

Sorry i dont know. Maybe call Best Buy or whoever sold you the computer.

Answer 4

How can you fix a computer if you can't even ask the question in the correct section?  

With XP you should be able to find more than one system restore point. Go to Control Panel, then Performance and Maintenance. You should fine System Restore under that.
