mng70 Posted March 29, 2007 Share 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

S.SubZero Posted March 30, 2007 Share 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kelsenellenelvian Posted March 30, 2007 Share 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.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kelsenellenelvian Posted March 30, 2007 Share 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... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
n7Epsilon Posted March 30, 2007 Share 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IcemanND Posted March 30, 2007 Share 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
