windows aero not working after reformatting my HDD

I'm having a problem with Windows Vista Aero now...
I usually work on my laptop with the battery removed because my friends
mentioned that this could overcharge the battery and shorten its life.
Well then, I was working on my laptop as usual, when my younger sister
accidentally pulled out the power cord. When I rebooted the computer, I ran
safe mode and restarted it in normal mode. All seemed well.
Today, when I turned on the computer, it was lagging much worse than usual.
The sleep and hibernate function is disabled, I cannot change the loudness of
my speakers, I cannot change the brightness of the screen, the system cannot
detect my graphics card (it's running on "standard VGA output"), and my theme
was windows vista basic.
I saved all necessary documents and reformatted the computer. All was
working fine except that windows aero was not available. I have downloaded
and installed the latest graphics drivers from nvidia but under the
"appearance" settings, the theme "windows aero" is not available. Even after
re-installing windows vista service pack 1, the theme is still not available.
computer configuration:
LG R405
Intel Core 2 Duo 2.2GHz
3 GB RAM
160 GB HDD
Nvidia GeForce 8400GS
Please... someone help me on this.
