I don't know how to set the wallpaper when you have disabled Active Desktop.
Let the people that know anything about Group Policy answer that one. What
you could do is set the wallpaper with a simple login script.. something
like this:
----------------------------
Dim backDrop, WshShell
backDrop = \\path\to\wallpaper.bmp ' could also you use local path e.g.
c:\wallpaper.bmp
Set WshShell = WScript.CreateObject("Wscript.Shell")
WshShell.RegWrite "HKCU\Control Panel\Desktop\Wallpaper", backDrop
Set WshShell = Nothing
----------------------------
This might take a couple of times logging in to take effect... but should
work.

Hello All,
I am working with a mixed environment of Windows XP and Windows 2000
machines and I need to set the wallpaper to black on all the machines.
How would I go about doing this using Group Policy? I am currently
disabling active desktop and am not able to enable it. Any
suggestions?
.
