It's enabled by default. If it's not for you, chances are your graphics card isn't supported then.

if you running GeForce 6 cards ya go to device manager then to display slect update driver and then selct the slect and sintall form a differant source area and under the FX 5950 list choose the LDDM driver that will enable the aero glass DWM it is the only way

Simply because the card isn't capable... or because the drivers havent been created/released or...?edit: spelling error

Then you're slightly stuffed! That's a directX7 chip, DX9 no pixel or vertex shading capabilities.

Integrated just means the graphics core isn't on an AIB, and doesn't hint at its capabilities... All he needs is an LDDM driver, some of which Intel already provide.

Yes, if it's 915G then it's DirectX9/OpenGL 1.4 capable, but I'd like to know what machine this is as the Centrino validation is meant to be limited to 855GME isn't it?

99% of intergrated is DX7 or lower specs.

And proportions mean what exactly? His chipset was clearly indicated in his post and in this case IS DirectX9 capable.:rolleyes:yes:

just cause it is DX9 does not mean that it will have LDDM drivers and that it will work

same with gameing its DX9 but crap in gameing so it is DX9 but dont mean it will work

Except that the 915G will have LDDM and is on the validation list. We're only talking about DX9 with 1gb graphcis bandwidth as the passmark for aero glass... a 5200 is capable of that... :rolleyes:
