sudeepg123 Posted March 29, 2007 Posted March 29, 2007 Hello guysRecently i got Windows Vista RC1 and installed on my computer with the following configIntel 945 GCCR Motherboard and Pentium D Processor with 512 MB of RAM.I couldnt get the Windows Vista Aero Theme.Does Intel 945 chipset support Windows Vista Aero?So how do i get the Aero?
mng70 Posted March 29, 2007 Posted March 29, 2007 Vista will decide if your hadrware is capable of running Aero. It will be mostly down to the abilities of your graphcs card.
S.SubZero Posted March 30, 2007 Posted March 30, 2007 Download Vista Manger If Vista decides it can't run Aero on a particular setup, I'm not sure forcing it on is really the best idea.Vista on 512MB RAM just sounds painful.
Kelsenellenelvian Posted March 30, 2007 Posted March 30, 2007 <snip> Does Intel 945 chipset support Windows Vista Aero?The chipset doesn't determine your aero usage your video capabilities does....
sudeepg123 Posted March 30, 2007 Author Posted March 30, 2007 How i should know whether my pc will run aero??Here is the score:Large ViewHow to know my video capabilities??
Kelsenellenelvian Posted March 30, 2007 Posted March 30, 2007 You need to find out how much ram your video card has in it...Judging by the scores though there is no way your system can handle aero...
n7Epsilon Posted March 30, 2007 Posted March 30, 2007 (edited) Intel 945G CAN run Windows Aero, however Aero is being disabled because of your 512 MB RAM.http://www.intel.com/support/graphics/sb/CS-023606.htm#1 Edited March 30, 2007 by n7Epsilon

IcemanND Posted March 30, 2007 Posted March 30, 2007 I personally would have done that before going to Vista. Just because Microsoft says it will run on 512mb doesn't mean you should. Or that you will get everything you want.
Innocent Devil Posted March 30, 2007 Posted March 30, 2007 512MB is Basic requirementAero is Premium so u need anything >512 MB to have Premium ExperienceOfcoz 945 is supported bcoz of u r 512MB ram vista just not enable aero auomaticallyu hav to force it
sudeepg123 Posted April 2, 2007 Author Posted April 2, 2007 Thanks for the advice. I`ll upgrade to 1GB in a day or two.
