Great tutorial here Aero Snap - Turn On or Off
All other tutorials here Tutorials - Windows 7 Forums

Edit: sorry, just read the tute and realised you probably want to turn off aero completely in which case go control panel> system> advanced system settings> advanced tab
Under performance (visual effects) check adjust for best performance. Alternatively you can just uncheck anything you don't want on.
Right-click Desktop > Personalize > Select either "Windows 7 Basic" or "Windows Classic"
But why in the world would you want to turn Aero off?
Yeah but doesn't aero slow things down if you don't have good ram or graphics card? Not trying to contradict you here, actually trying to learn a bit more about it :) He hasn't posted his specs so not sure if his graphics card can fully support aero.
Can't imagine another reason... Personally, I love aero but have read if you have don't have a good graphics card or enough ram, it can slow your system down???
AERO is rendered all on the GPU and while it does use a little bit of RAM...that isn't the bottleneck here...
If he has a very poor GFX that can actually run AERO it would be of benefit to probably turn it off...otherwise running Windows 7 Basic is the more resource hog...
Comes down to your GFX...I would much rather have the CPU focus on other things than rendering a desktop...most of the time your GPU isn't doing anything anyways...
That is also the reason why some games/apps kick the theme into Windows 7 Basic when ran...without going to technical...those software don't want to share
