Did you activate Vista? I've heard reports that MS is planning to disable certain features in Vista (including the aero thingie) until you activate your copy.

If it's a service turn it on i don't have the hardware to run it but i would sure want to!

Yes, I've activated Vista, I just don't know how to turn on aero. can some one help me?

this site might help you ,i have vista install but not on this hdd .but i did look forAero last night on my other hdd ,but i don't think i meet the right video card requirments as listem on this site im linking here .but it a visual setting is all simular i guess to one use by macintosh as i read on link im posting HERE
AERO =Authentic, Energetic, Reflective and Open

I don't actually have the beta but i read that vista turns of some features if you dont have something that it needs. On a Mac you can activate a similar effect by pushing a function button 9-12, not sure which one.

Could I activate Aero on my PC? (Sempron 3000+ 1Gb ddr 5300 Geforce6150) ?

Yes you can. I actually figured out how to do it. Once you get the drivers for your card, right click on the destkop and click personalize (I hate how they changed everything). Then you want to go to themes and choose aero from there. It's as easy as that.

Marking thread as solved.

Vista Aero is a new feature, which is first time seen in the history of windows family of operating systems. It includes features like 3D look of windows and many more exciting ones. The Vista Aero requires a high end machine with high speed processor, 512 MB RAM, DirectX 9.0 compatible graphics card with minimum 128 MB RAM, and a high RPM hard disk.
