beta 2 glass effect problems

Hey Guys,

I installed beta 2 (5384.4) a few days ago and installation went through
without a hitch... no problems encountered as of yet.. the only thing that is
really bugging me is that I can't seem to get the glass effect to work. I
have a Nvidia Geforce Go 5200 video card, and Aero ran just fine with the
previous Vista builds (by the LDDM alpha drivers).

I've tried every single driver and forceware available:

88.61
87.45
87.15
75.03

I even installed the Nvidia driver through the Windows Update Server, still
didn't work.. although gave me a nvidia control panel.

None of them seem to turn the glass effect on, in this build. Even tried to
force it through the registry but no luck. And still trying to by-pass
activation.. I'll prolly uninstall it if I can't get the glass effect to work
in a few days.

P.S: Is anyone else finding that the "customize color scheme" section is
buggy? I cannot see the different glass colors nor do the "ok" and "cancel"
buttons work.

Cheers.
