Re: Aero will not function

I don't know about the Mobile version but I have absolutely no problem
running Aero with the standard MOBO 945 chipset with the Max memory
allocation set to 128MB,1 GB of main memory and a Intel HT CPU.
Hopefully someone who has your exact chipset will respond, if not. start a
new thread with the chipset added to the subject line which should help
finding a user with the same chipset to respond.
