Video Card 3D Acceleration: Required - Yes , You have - Yes
Video HW Transform & Lighting: Required - Yes , You have - Yes
Vertex Shader Ver.: Required - 3.0 , You have - 3.0
Pixel Shader Ver.: Required - 3.0 , You have - 3.0
Does anyone have any idea why the AERO option doesnt work on my computer? Could it be something else?
Thanks for the help! |
Hmmm? You should be good to go. Since there is no specific setting to enable Aero, go Contol Panel > Personalize > Window Color and Appearance. Then, be sure that transparency is enabled. Also, go Control Panel > System > Advanced Settings. Then, make sure that adjust for best performance is not selected. Finally, go Control Panel > Personalize > Themes. Then, make sure the Windows Vista is selected. And, honestly, I am not sure to what extent these settings affect Aero--except that the first one has an obvious effect. Post back whatever.
