Vista - areo feature

im having trouble accesing the areo feature, i only get the vista basic
feature but i have installed the prmiem version

What make and model of graphics card do you have and how much memory is on
the graphics card?
How much main memory do you have?

Light travels faster than sound. This is why some people appear bright
until you hear them speak.........

Your video card would need to meed the additional requirements also. If they
do, then it may be a matter of turning it on.

But, what video card are you using?

If the video card you are adding meets the Vista specs and has 128MB or more
of onboard memory and if you have 512MB of main memory.
Yes, if your Vista version is Aero capable you will have Aero avaialbe when
you reboot the system.
