Im having a problem thats not really that important but its annoying. i have no aero effects at all. when i go into personalize, all i get for window color is the old school options. ive gone into the registry and put in the entries that ive read to put in, the entries i put in were for a 32 bit system and mines a 64 bit. i dont know if that makes a difference. ive tried the built in troubleshooter. ive gone into service.msc and disabled the desktop manager thing and enabled it and started and restarted it with no luck. google is telling me all the same things and i was wondering if any computer guys here know how to fix this. help would be appreciated!

Oh, and my new wireless printer didn't work wirelessly with the 64 bit. The software wasn't compatible.
OP have you installed anything lately? Did Aero work before and then all of a sudden quit?

click on that link and look for the directions for Win7 and perform a clean boot. Maybe there is some conflicting software that is preventing Aero from working.

lol deev, its like a theme. your taskbar and everything is transparent and you can make them different colors. it just looks cooler and its driving me nuts that my computer is being such an idiot with turning it back on.

1. Left Click Start Menu
2. Right Click 'Computer'
3. Left Click 'Properties'
4. On the window that pops up, click 'advanced system settings'
5. On the next window that pops up click on the button 'settings' under the 'performance' section.
6. Adjust the settings to your liking.
P.S. I would personally go back into the registry first and delete any new entries you created previously, or revert the changes back to the original settings you modified, before following the steps outlined.
