Hi people. I have a problem with my Windows Vista Ultimate, I no longe
have Aero theme enabled, and, I can't select it from the list. This ha
started after I had to format my drive and install Vista all over
Everything else with it seems just fine. Only this "Windows Vist
Transparency" is not working. There is only one place I can think of t
enable it at, and it is not there. Do I need to install some updates?

There should be another option there "Windows Vista Ultimate" I think
but I could be wrong

But how do I enable transparency and all of the other effects of Aero?

THANK YOU PEOPLE FOR YOUR HELP!

Maybe fresh display drivers for your video subsystem?

When you reinstalled Vista did you also put the mainboard system drivers
back in? I mean Sound drivers, Video drivers, USB drivers, Intel or AMD
drivers etc from the Manufacturers install CD?
Updated your Video driver?
Looked for THEMES in control panel?

I really love solving my own questions!!

Anybody who has this issue: Run this tool - 'Windows Vista Aero Glass
visual effects are not working'
(http://support.microsoft.com/gp/aero...ntrypoint=WHHT)

Enjoy.
