Hello arlsmk, have a look at this tutorial;

Regardless it will still be dependent on your hardware, you will need a minimum of 128mb of dedicated graphics memory

In basic there is no Aero by default.

However you can use this third party tool to enable aero: RapidShare: 1-CLICK Web hosting - Easy Filehosting (Rapidshare link).



P.S.: sorry Mitchell, I was typing when you posted

Thank you for filling in your system specs it makes it so much easier for members to assist you, i can not see any problem with your hardware.
As i have not tried this work around i can only run at a guess & try the obvious, try a simple restart if you have not already.
Then right click on Computer and & select Properties & check the options that i highlighted in the pic

After that re run your index score;

Also right click on your desktop personalize check to see first that Aero theme is available if so then apply

If none of these work i am at a loss but i am sure Nokian or some one else will have more ideas

Edit: I don't know if this will be available now that you have made the changes to your home basic edition (probably not) but you could have a look in the Action Center/Troubleshooting

Windows 7 Home Basic is available in selected regions only, Aero Transparency is however not available in this edition.

There is however a fix on the internet we cant describe here.

ahhh..ok2. i see i see. anyway thank u all for the help, i appreciate it very much, maybe i just upgrade to a premium.

You are welcome, purchasing an upgrade is a very good idea as it gives you a nice clean operating system without all the pre installed bloat ware that is usually out of date & you have the hardware to support the upgrade.
It is what i do with my own laptops then i install my own preferred choice of software & apps. have a look at this tutorial;

Just make sure to back up your drivers or go to your manufacturers website and download new drivers before the upgrade
