The Aero option is not there - Looking at my device manager the new driver
from ATI seems to be not working properly as windows has queried the card and
the chess game only works in 2d mode??
So does Vista disable the Aero effect if there are problems with the GFX
hardware??
Also has MSoft got a drivers page for VISTA I need an ATI driver that works.
Very Fed up at the moment - If anyone can help it would be much appreciated
