Hi, I have a Windows Vitsa Ultamate 64-bit RC1 (build 5600) computer. I had
had a video card which did not support DX9 and therefore did not support
Aero. I just installed an EVGA GeForce 7600GT w/ 256 GDDR3. Aero now works
exept for one problem. When a window is maximized, the entire title bar is
black exept for clickable buttons. Is this a known issue w/ my pre-realease
copy or is it fixable?

Thank you,
John Timms

The title bar is only transparent when the window is NOT maximized. This is
intentional, couldn't tell you why though.

It is normal behavior: the title bar looses transparency
(By buttons, do you mean the reduce to taskbar, minimize/maximize, and close?)

In the final builds they added some gloss, but it's still black and no
transparency when maximized.
