| | Re: How can I enable the Aero effect? If you have the WDDM drivers installed as Rick suggested and you still don't get Aero, its possible you might have enable it manually. Right click your Desktop > click Personalize > click Windows Color and Appearance > under themes > select Windows AERO > OK. If it still does not appear, try updating your Windows Experience Index Score. Click Start > right click Computer > click Properties > click the Update Score link, accept UAC message. -- Andre Blog: http://adacosta.spaces.live.com My Vista Quickstart Guide: http://adacosta.spaces.live.com/blog/cns!E8E5CC039D51E3DB!9709.entry "yao" <y.yao@126.com> wrote in message news:OlGPm4$$GHA.3396@TK2MSFTNGP02.phx.gbl... > How can I enable the Aero effect? > > My VGA card is ATi X300, and have 128M memory. > > but where can I enable the AERO? > |
