cheers, hope ive done that right
Alright. I see.
Start menu | All Programs | Startup folder
Delete:
Adobe Gamma
Logitech . Product Registration
LightScribe Control Panel
Asus Smart Doctor
Microsoft Office
NCProTray
Bluebirds <<< likely the cause ...uninstall this recommended...it's Adware
Reboot.
You also have many services starting with the PC that aren't needed. If the above doesn't fix it let me know. It could also be your Avast but probably not.
sorry, do you mean remove shortcut?
or actually open startup folder..
Go to the startup folder on the start menu how I said. Delete the shortcuts there I listed and then reboot.
Before reboot though, you should uninstall Bluebird.
ok ive done all that except LightScribe Control Panel & Asus Smart Doctor as they wasnt in my startup folder...going to reboot now
Hello Hondavee4,
Welcome to 7 Forums.
Just a thought. Have you run the WEI (Windows Experience Index) yet. Control Panel\All Control Panel Items\Performance Information and Tools. Windows uses this to determine that your comp is capable of aero.

hello gary, yes mate it was one of the 1st things i did
ive done it a few times since, last time it detected "a new hardware" but there wasnt anything new
ive done the above steps, reinstalled driver, rebooted and ....back to how it was before
ive gone into msconfig and disabled everything in the startup except the operating system (i guess this was kinda important)
but install driver and reboot its exactly the same

this was taken yesterday but its no different
Don't know if this will help but go to control panel/personalization, select the color option at bottom of screen, make sure you have ck'd Enable transparency, clk on advanced settings and notice that it says aero and transparency will not work if you haven't selected a windows theme. hit the back button until you get back to the first personalization screen up top it will say unsaved theme clk on the save theme over at the right side. this worked for me. also aero will not work for any windows 7 version below home premium.
P.S. also ck control panel/performance info and tools/ adjust visual effects. check let windows decide whats best but make sure
Enable glass transparency and Enable Aero peek options are both checked
is the "desktop windows manager " in services
set to automatic rather than manual?
or try stopping the service and then start the service again and see if you get any errors when you re-enable it
