It could be an incompatible program.

You have ticked enable desktop composition, under 6. here http://www.vistax64.com/tutorials/75417-visual-effects-options.html
"Desktop Window Manager Session Manager" service must run as well I think.

If nothing helps you might have same problem as the one I battled recently. Turned out UtipU a screencapture program installs a Mirage Mirror driver which somehow manage to disable Aero. Had vanished completely. If I remember correctly the "Enable desktop composition" was not even there. Only way to enable was uninstall of UtipU, then all went back to normal.

UtipU not the only program using Mirrage driver. Actually I think it was a beta installation but could be relevant. The idea I guess is to use "Basic" while recording, then return to Aero. Like remote programs does it - must be but not how it worked.
