Ok, I'm in the wrong place. So the first question is, where is the
right place?
But since I'm here .....
Installed the latest Vista Beta on a Toshiba A105-S2712 laptop. The
Vista advisor, running under XP, says it can run Aero. This laptop has
an Intel 915 chipset with Intel Graphics Accelerator 900 chipset video
(uses shared memory). This video system can allocate 128MB of video
memory and supports Pixel Shader 2. The computer has a gigabyte of
total memory. The CPU is a Pentium M 1.73GHz (not a Celeron).
My questions all revolve around running Aero the Aero interface on this
system.
First, how can I tell if Aero is running? If Aero is like an Orgasm
("if you don't know if you are running it, you are not"), then I'm not
running Aero. There is nothing spectacularly different that reaches out
and shakes me, no transparent see-through Windows or anything like that.
Second, if I'm not running it, is there anything in Vista itself that
will come right out and tell me if I'm running Aero, if not why not, and
is there anything I can do turn Aero on if it's currently off?
[Note, I'm using pretty much "Classic everything" .... start menu,
desktop, folders]
Thanks
