Hi DeLyle,
Simplest thing to do first, is to revert to an earlier date before this started happening.
This will exclude recent Updates being the culprit.
If still the same ,then check into the other areas shown below.
Check this link
http://windows7themes.net/windows-7-unsaved-theme-bug.html
Defaulting to basic Windows theme is often the case if the computer
doesn't have enough "resources" to support more advanced settings for wallpaper,
Aero and the like.
This can/will happen from the start on an underpowered machine,
but also if there's a change in RAM, size of paging file (too small) and if your disk
is very full and doesn't allow a proper paging file to be created.
Check RAM ,Power Supply voltages, ventilation openings for blockage,
temperature of CPU and other CPU specs.
Another reason might be a corrupted or damaged User profile,
which could be "repaired" by creating a new profile and transferring your personal data to it.

Subject: [PCBUILD] Problems with Windows 7
Hi. Not sure if this is the right forum for this problem, but my Asus 64 bit Win 7 laptop, which has always functioned well, suddenly defaults to settings I have not selected. I suppose this occurred after some sort of Windows update (so what's new about that?). My desktop wallpaper switched to one of the Windows themes (white background with a light blue band across the middle), so I tried several times to Personalize the background, select what I had previously, even deleted the annoying wallpaper, but it keeps coming back upon boot up. Also, I uncheck 'hide task bar automatically' but it, too, boots back to the checked setting, which I did NOT have previously. Can anyone help?
