DWM - ati


Recommended Posts

Hey everyone,, i dont mean to sound redundant cause there are probably about a hundred of these threads, but i have a question regarding the new DWM feature in Windows Vista B1. I am currently trying to get the new glass feature working but cannot manage to do so. I do have a rather old school vdeo card. its a Radeon 7000. Does any one know of any way to possibly get this working on this card? I am more or less curious and would really like to see it in action even though i know that performance would not be that good.

Thanks allot in advance!

I am not sure, but TweakVista can do the treak !

The graphic card still has to have LDDM drivers installed, and has to be LDDM compatible to work with tweak vista.

I had a Radeon 9000 card.

After Vista beta1 was released , I upgraded to 9800 for $100 just to tryout Aero glass.

It was completely worth it. :)

create one .cmd file or .bat file and write the following code

Cls
Reg add HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer /v MILDeskto /t REG_DWORD /d 1
Reg add HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer /v MILExplorer /t REG_DWORD /d 1
Echo adding DWM Enging in Startup and running it.
Rundll32.exe udwm.dll DwmClientStartup
Echo reg add HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run /v DWM /t REG_SZ /d ?RUNDLL32.EXE udwm.dll DwmClientStartup?
Echo Finished
Pause
Exit

After your done with it.. just run it.. and restart your machine. I am attaching .cmd file with this post.

now this will enable DWM on any non-supported card as well as suppported card, but there will be big performance problem, but yet its enjoying.
