Hi and welcome to the Forum
If you right lick on your desktop and then click "Personalise" can you see the Aero themes?

Start menu > search box > type, Advanced system settings and click on "view advanced system settings" click on the settings button I have highlighted in yellow below. On next screen make sure enable transparent glass is checked and adjust for best performance is selected.

there u go

You could also check your system settings by following the steps in Post #13 to ensure aero glass is enabled.

there

there all ticked cant even see transperent glass there i saw it befor but it dissapered?

 

[mitchell65]

Now I think you have disabled Aero by choosing a Basic theme. This will then give you what you see or in your case what you don't see in the Advanced System Settings. To cure this Right click on your desktop, choose Personalize and then choose an Aero Theme. All your options will come back!
