To better help us to help you would you please add your systems specs? Here's the correct way to do it. :SystemInfo See Your System Specs Under System Manufacturer/Model Number add whether it is a desktop or laptop and whether self built. Very important

Log in to Seven Forums and you will be able to transfer the info directly to the specs page in your profile from within the System Info app.

After doing this your specs will be available in each of your posts.
Click on My system Specs in the lower left of this post to see how it should look.:)
Full instructions are in the tutorial.

Well, he says that at least is an HP, taking into account that OEMs don't disable visual effects, I can deduce he is using 7 Starter... And sadly enough, he will never be able to enable full Aero (transparent windows) unless he upgrades to a more complete version of W7... By the other hand, upgrading to another version can cause slowdowns (starter is normaly used for low end machnes)... unless the OEM installed starter just to give a better price for the whole PC...

Hope he can fullfull his system specs, but by now the best bet is that this is W7 starter and Aero is not available, even the butchered version...
