Hi, which display card are you using? How much video ram did it have? How much RAM did your system installed? Note: AGP Aperture memory will not be used until your video card's on-board memory is running low. That means it will usually not impact your gaming performance because developers are trying hard to not exceed the on-board memory limits. The bigger your video memory, the smaller your Aperture Size could be. Setting the Aperture Size to HUGE values will not increase performance because this merely sets the maximum amount of physical memory that can be used.
If there's any other setting for making the bios share more memory with your video card enable it or set it. If it works for you please leave a comment for other users, so we know which cards do work. If it still doesn't work make sure you have the latest Vista video drivers for your vga card. I have the same problem, i was able to use the aero function for about 5 min when an alet popped up and kicked me back into Windows Vista Theme with no Aero, my refreshrate is good, lost of RAM, and i have no idea what the problem is..

I want the Glassy effect back. All of my hardware is compatable or it has been for 2 months, atleast. I have had my pc for about half a year and have had no problems with aero. I booted up this morning and with no warning or alert message, it was running vista basic graphics. More here. Now I have troubles after installing SP2.
When Windows starts it begin in the normal Aero modus opened the sidebar , I hear a ping of the system than my desktop changed into the classic mode. I have the same problem But I can't get windows aero to appear in color scheme. I had it before but I can't get it now. If someone comes up with a way to do this with the HP Pavilion dvus with MB video memory, email me at [email protected].
BTW, does it matter based on the specs of your PC? I would enable Aero glass for sure. With all the transparency. I swear a God there is a lot of stupid people if i ask them for a dollar I will get a lot of money HOw many stupid assholes all over the internet saying the same shit and you see how many stupids still trying the same fucking commands?
Believe me guys, this will be one hell of a task! But I have found Windows Aero interface to be over-rated, seriously, just use TrueTransparency and TransBar me and some other guy mentioned this earlier in this post! Hey people i know you people wont the aero effect very dearly i know you must have tried everything up there.
So here is the real deal. There are two ways u can get that aero :- 1. Ma provate prima di parlare oltre il fatto che la chiave di sistema e gia impostata a 1 e a 0… Ma il vista home basic non supporta aero…solo le piu costose di vista come ultimatum ecc….
You can always find some downloads that will do the same thing. Keep practicing and searching for this. I am doing. And rumour has it that Bill Gates uses Linux, So why an operating system that a not even the CEO of Microsoft would us And b has a lot of stuff copied from another operating system. First of all i have not tryed this hack.
But i hope it works. I got a fast computer Core 2 quad Over clocked to 4 GHz 3 gtx s in tri sli on a i and i run vista basic. Well DX And because do not want to pay for the higher end vistas. Basic does every thing i want it to this aro hack if it works is just a bonus. Now if it does not what ever. Now i also know there programs like windows blinds crystalXP ect. I asume the outher os your talking about is MacOS. But you must rember that bill gates gave Apple computers 7mil to keep them from going under.
Its like ford saying that doge cant have power windows because they did it first. Who cares. And if mac os is so good how come people are puting XP on there macs hmmm? Now i got nothing aganst macs or apple computers i have a mac and i got no problems useing it. But i am a INTeL guy. There is nothing slow about my system now that I have Aero active…people love to assume crap. My video card falls short by one number actually…Aero still runs fast.
Hah, you know what? Not so much a problem with four gigs of ram, though. Hey guys, thx for the instructions here, i followed it to the letter an it works…and might i just say to thoes who do not have the basic understanding of human knowlage and have abused ppl here…. My McLovin, can you please advise what else can be done to get this to work. Of course do that Compostion thing a magig. So any help is greatly appreciated to all….. If you are going for the aero effect, the hack thingy should work.
Hope this helps. I might have done something earlier to improve the performance that disabled those functions so any info would help. Sorry, but it does involve the registry. Do exactly what he explains up there but on CompositionPolicy change the value to 2 and on Composition set the value to 1. Be safe, create a restore point by clicking Start, Control Panel, System and Maintenance, Backup and Restore Center, and then clicking create a restore point on the side bar.
Restore points create a place for your computer to fall back onto if everything goes to hell. Also, this hack doesnt give you the ability to edit how Aero looks easily. Restart your computer. Open command prompt. Type net stop uxsms, press enter. Type net start uxsms, press enter. You should now have Aero. Well, it is very easy to actually do windows transparency in vista home basic. Download these theme : glass se7en final, or windows 7 narrow.
With them you can get the real glass transparency like the other windows with aero. With windows 7 narrow theme, you get the transparency when the windows are not maximized the default way of how transparency in vista work , while with glass se7en final theme, you get transparency in both, maximized or not maximized. I assume you know how to apply these theme, if not, the website tells you how, or just google it. Oh, and also: There are viruses for Apple computers.
Also, the only people who get viruses are people who download stuff from unsafe sites, anyway. I use Avast! Free and I had ONE banner inserter that one of my friends installed on my computer as a joke. Only because I left him alone with it for five minutes. It is available right out of the box.
This will give the coloured squares to select the colour of your windows. I have checked the registry values an all of my machines, and they are all set to Composition 1, and Composition Policy 2. Therefore no need to go into the registry and change anything! For transparent window borders, try Truetransparency. For transparent windows, I use Glass2k. You can also set the transparency of the taskbar.
This is a neat little gadget that will open a live thumbnail of any open window, when you place your cursor over the window name in the taskbar. It also allows you to alter the size of the thumbnail. Wich uses the same keys to operate as the Home Premium and Ulimate editions. All of these are free and have no adverse effects on my system.
I can run them all at once with no problems. Its, not working… I have got bit vista… not workin with me… please check it.. I use windows 7 ultimate at home but have to use Windows vista basic on the computer that I work from just because its just what was already installed. Tried this but the values are already set to 1 and 0 respectively and I dont get the option :.
Thank you very much for this article! I spend half a day to load some MB of zipped themes.. Thanks a lot to give me a good sleep after this 12 hours mining dust!
Karl Reimer Godt. I have an idea…. Anonymous, April 12, at am Your a twat. And who said we all paid for Windows?
