hey guys, as my last post's said, i was fixing up my lappy,and i did a recovery of it and it is now reset back to its original factory thing. Except for 1 thing. its the theme!! Its like, the "x" maximize and also the minimize buttons are those little buttons and instead of a "transparancy" like look, its a wierd blue thingy. I dont like it! My vista was like the "normal" vista and now its all wierd" here are some screen-shot things off internet to help u to understand wut im saying...

Right click on computer and go into the properties and click run scan or what ever it says here.

You need a certain score so it will enable the aero.

If you right click on the desktop and go to Personalize, Colour and Appearance the open Classic Appearance properties is there no option for Windows Aero colour scheme?
