Vista Tutorial - Transparency Box

11-09-2007

have I have Windows Ultimate on my computer and downloaded the Dream Scenes.
I have not been able to run it as I cannot select the Transparency Box in
Windows Color and Appearance as the box does not appear. I have first gone
to Theme and selected Windows Vista, when I go to Windows Color and
Appearance, I can select Windows Aero but there is no Transparency Box to
select. I am running a Nvidea 7600GT graphics card and I have downloaded all
updates. I have checked on the Windows Experienc Index and my computer gets
a score of 5.3 while the graphics card gets a score of 5.9. Can anyone tell
me how to get the Transparency Box up so that I can select it?

In the Personalize explorer did you check 'Themes' applet > click in the
Themes list box and select "AERO Glass"? Also check Services to make sure
that the Desktop Windows Manager service is running.
