Flip 3D in Build 5270

[MtnMan]

I have tried all of the Window key combinations I could find on the net to see the Flip 3D application switching but nothing seems to work. Win-Space, Win-Alt, Win-Tab are what I have tried. Does it work for anyone else? If so, is there somewhere that it needs to be enabled or am I using the wrong key combination? I have even tried switching to a copatible video card (Radeon 7550) since my other just came up as VGA compatible.

I think this should do the trick:

1. Open up regedit.

2. Navigate thru HKEY_Local_Machine, Software, Microsoft, Windows, Current Version, and Explorer.

3. Create a new DWORD and call it MILDesktop.

4. Set the value of MILDesktop to 1.

5. Create a new DWORD and call it MILExplorer.

6. Set the value of MILExplorer to 1.

7. Exit explorer and restart.

Thanks N1K but unfortunately it did not work. I did however have a spare 256 Meg NVidia card at home which Vista had the LDDM drivers for so I gave that a shot and viola, it worked. Now that is some cool stuff!

There's a button in the quick launch bar that does that for you, it looks like a few white windows, atleast it's on mine and it does it. Plus I think it's Ctrl+Space, but I can't confirm, ain't in it ATM.

I thought it was Alt-Tab?

Those are the old reg hacks for build 4074. WTF are you on?

You can't get Flip3D without DWM. I don't think DX9 software emulation will get you Flip3D, even with glass running.

My mistake, sorry!
