    Aero & GeForse 6600

    Okay, I know the guys in the States have nothing to do with Pacard Bell
    BUT.....

    I have a PB Easynote W7621 laptp. PB do not have any drivers for Vista at
    all, as far as I can see on their web site. Although Vista downloaded the
    updated drivers for my GeForce 6600 (256MB) and now my system runs fine in
    all resolutions.....

    How do I get it to run Aero?

    TIA

    By default Aero did not automatically appear on my computer. I had to go to
    the desktop settings and enable it. I have Aero with only a FX5200 video
    card so you should be fine.

    Sorted.... Pulled down drivers off Nvidia site and also
    www.laptopvideo2go.com for an updated inf file. Copied the new inf into the
    install dirctory and re-installed the video drivers. Gave me an alert
    indicating the drivers were not Vista certified but carried on. Working 100%
    at the moment although I have lost my external screen as I was dual
    screening. But that i not serious

    Keith, if you haven't already done so, go to the Nvidia website and get the
    latest driver download for your graphics card. Look for Vista RC1 updates.
    The website will direct you to it.
    After you install that driver and reboot right click on your desktop and
    choose 'Personalize'
    Under the 'Appearance' heading you should see where you can change the color
    scheme. Just drop that menu down and choose 'Aero Glass' and that should give
    you what you're looking for.
