=============================================
Sorry...I'm not sure why Live Photo Gallery is
slower to open. No guarantees but maybe the
following update would help:

(952709) A reliability and performance update
is available for Windows Vista SP1-based computers

You could try the following steps but I don't think you
can change the background in Live Photo Gallery
without affecting other programs.

Go to...Personalize Windows / Window Color and
Appearance / Advanced button....

Left click the "Window Text" area on the display...
Open the "Color 1" drop window and choose a color...
OK / OK

And...maybe the following article would be worth a look:

(942632) How to remove the association between
the display and a color profile when pictures are
being displayed with bad color
