Mx Posted September 17, 2005 Share Posted September 17, 2005 Most likely won't because this isn't a Beta release. Only a IDW. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

soMzE Posted September 17, 2005 Share Posted September 17, 2005 Open regedit.exe in the run box. And then go to HKLM\Software\Microsoft\ Create a new key called DWM In the new DWM key you create a new DWORD key: EnableMachineCheck (0 = Disable; 1 = Enable) I have a nVIDIA geforce 7800 gtx and this was the way to enable dwm on my system, looks awesome :) Here are some more reghacks to play with: http://www.aeroxp.net/board//index.php?showtopic=854 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Civilian Posted September 17, 2005 Share Posted September 17, 2005 i install vista, it installs its own 7800gtx driver from the dvd but no glass effect or anything fancy :( :( when i try installing nvidia's alpha forceware drivers it says it can't find the right hardware :rolleyes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I restarted my machine and the effects where all there :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

erwinrom Posted September 17, 2005 Share Posted September 17, 2005 Here with a Ati Radeon 9800 pro I have problems to, the LDDM drivers are installed but look the result at the display properties.: No videocard and no cool effect's. :cry: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
:: Lyon :: Posted September 17, 2005 Share Posted September 17, 2005 Instead of using NVIDIA setup (for the old LDDM), "upgrade" your current video card driver, and point to the old driver folder 75.03 Vista will then "upgrade" your 77.02? back to 75.03 and voila, you got the cool effect back! :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vice Posted September 17, 2005 Share Posted September 17, 2005 Don't have an old folder since I formatted the partition instead of an upgrade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SkaterAustin Posted September 17, 2005 Share Posted September 17, 2005 only thing that has me ****ed about vista, or id be using it still.. Is that my x800 xl 256 AGP isn't supported yet, ati claimed there lddm drivers would work so i followed there instructions (unistall the drives windows installed, restart, when the new hardware devices thing comes out locate there new driver) do this and it restarts and i get back to the same stupid thing black screen. I know why its doing it but seriously what i cant figure out is they cant take there time to fix 2 issues with video cards x700 and x800 xl agp models. I dont care if its ms fixing it or even ati..
