Q: I have lion installed on my mac.  My desktop and screensaver, in system preferences, will not load.  Everything else, seems to be okay.  Any suggestions?

I have Lion installed on my mac.  My desktop and screensaver, in system preferences will not load.  I have to Force close it, after it's been open.  I know that I

can change my desktop pic, by clicking "change my desktop, but I would like to understand what made it freeze up like that.  All I get is that thing that looks like a piece of candy.  From there, it does nothing.  The rest of the system preferences work fine.  It's like its caught in a loop of some kind.  I would appreciate any help that I can get.  Thanks.
