Kaos2K · Aug 2, 2008

hi! Im using tinyVista Rev 02 on de AAO with all the drivers installed for it (all works perfectly) including the Intel Graphics card (im using Intel Driver: http://downloadcenter.intel.com/Detail_ ... n&lang=eng )but Aero did not show up, no matter if i go to Themes, use the Change windows tray icon etc... Aero is not here

how can i enable it?

P.D. tinyVista includes Aero : http://66.102.9.104/search?q=cache:rOND ... cd=4&gl=es

Do you have upgraded memory? From another thread it is said that the default 512mb won't support Aero, but an upgrade 1.5 gb machine will.

As far as I can tell there is no pixel shader 2.0 support nor Direct X 9 support (at least when I tried to install the Vista video driver it failed saying that hardware wasn't present), so that means no Aero 3D. Sorry.

Up to 1.5Gb. Nevermind, i changed to WinXP SP3 which runs better tha Vista

whose up to the task of installing a video card with pixel shader 2.0 support???

now that would be a mod....
