    Hi, Ryko, and welcome to the forums.

    First of all, please abide by the forum rules and don't use all capital letters, it is symbolic of *shouting* at people - very rude behavior.

    Next, please use the "My System Specs" underneath your login name at the far left to edit your system specifications - it will allow us to help answer your post a lot faster.

    Hello Ryko, and welcome to Seven Forums.

    Did you install all of the latest device driver versions for your computer, and refresh the WEI score?

    Plus, you would want to use one of the Aero themes instead of a Windows 7 Basic theme.

    Hope this helps,

Hi there. I have a minor graphical problem, this: http://yfrog.com/0b22895873p I suppose this happened because of AVG, 'cause it was the only program installed over a fresh W7 installation. Has anyone had this kind of problems?
