vcv Posted July 30, 2005 Share Posted July 30, 2005 How i can enable the DWM Effect on Vista Beta 1 ??? 586296627[/snapback] It's enabled by default. If it's not for you, chances are your graphics card isn't supported then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Axel Posted July 30, 2005 Share Posted July 30, 2005 http://www.tweakvista.com/TweakVistaUtility.aspx This program should enable DWM effects and Glass on unsupported cards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xav Posted July 30, 2005 Share Posted July 30, 2005 intergrated? wont work for? the new effects? not right? now atleast 586296701[/snapback] 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. Any idea how i can find out my gfx card's capabilities? 586296764[/snapback] 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. 586297531[/snapback] And proportions mean what exactly? His chipset was clearly indicated in his post and in this case IS DirectX9 capable.:rolleyes:yes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We're only talking about DX9 with 1gb graphcis bandwidth as the passmark for aero glass... a 5200 is capable of that... :rolleyes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bitbonk Posted August 5, 2005 Share Posted August 5, 2005 All NVidia Graphic Cards, that support DirtetcX 9 support Windows Vista DWM. You just need to donwload and install the Nvidia LDDM Alpha dirvers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
