    Windows Aero Not Working (Intel 4000 HD Graphics)


    Hello Win7 Forums!

    I'm currently having trouble with Aero. I just reinstalled Windows 7 as I had a number of bugs and glitches that I needed to resolve. Before, Aero was working just fine. Now, however, Aero isn't working and just looks like the Win7 Basic theme. I have tried the troubleshooter; it says that my video card doesn't support Aero effects.

    I have tried installing the latest Intel drivers to no avail (This computer does not meet the minimum requirements for installing this software. ) I have even tried force enabling Aero from the registry.

    If anyone can help, please let me know. Thanks in advance.

    Best regards,

    Based on your "My System Specs", I'm assuming you re-installed Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit in your HP (unknown model name and model number and serial number).

    Did it include Service Pack 1?

    Did you install any Windows 7 updates before you attempted to install the Intel HD Graphics 4000 graphics driver?

Ok so I built myself a new PC and everything was running fine. Then I decided to change the graphics card from an ASUS Radeon HD 6770 to an ASUS Radeon HD6850 1GB. Upon restart and every restart since, the Aero effects do not work. At first I just figured I hadnt got the right drivers. Games...
Sorry about the previous thread. I had gotten the poll wrong and i couldn't edit it. This time I triple checked the poll before I submit it. Limits: max score possible in W7 is 7.9, WEI of Intel HD 3000 is about 6.3 so that's the minimum. This is for the graphics score and not the gaming...
Hey, guys! I'm having a few problems with my Asus U30Jc-A1 laptop I just bought. This model has hybrid graphics (nVidia Optimus), that means there are both integrated and dedicated graphics processors inside. The Intel graphics driver sometimes crashes, and it only happens during or after the...
