If your PC meets the minimum requirements to run Vista's Areo GUI, but fails to run it when selected in the Apperance settings, make sure that your graphics card is using the manufacturer's most recent drivers. Although you can update your graphics card through Vista, it's best to visit the manufacrturer's Web site and download the drivers directly from the site, because hardware manufacrurers generally outpace Microsoft when it comes to releasing new device drivers. Aside from outdated drivers, some users have reported that Logitech's Harmony remote software disables the Areo GUI. If you're using this software and it starts automatically with Windows, you can prevent it from doing so using the System Configuration utility. Click the Windows orb, type msconfig in the Search bar and press ENTER. Click to select the Startup Tab, Click to remove the checkmark beside the Harmony startup entry, and Click OK. Restart your PC. |
