Hi. Unfortunately, you'll have to upgrade if you want Aero at all. It will never happen with the display adapter.

You can try to install the driver in the device manager using this.

Right click it, update driver software, browse my computer, let me pick, have disk, browse.

Double click on the .inf. Hit ok, then next.

do you mean the drivers are not working or aero isnt working, if the latter im afraid it will never work, you need the card to be able to support directx 9 or higher which unfortunately yours does not ,sorry

that is just a typing error by the OP , the poster meant he formatted the partition on his drive , but that will not solve your problem, have a look at post on the tutorial i suggested in post number seven , follow it to the letter and you should be good to go

I am upgrading a machine for a customer. This is a dell Dimension 2300. Stuck a P4 2.6 in and added 1 gig of ram to the machine. Win7 Ult 32 is running very well except for the graphics drivers. intel 845gl. I had this working in vista on an identical machine before but i can't find the driver that i used then. ps love the info i have found in the forums here.
