Long Posted September 21, 2005 Share Posted September 21, 2005 I just got it working on my Intel Extreme Graphics 2 chipset too. Guess Microsoft is making a lot of progress on Aero Express. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Illusion456 Posted September 21, 2005 Share Posted September 21, 2005 I can confirm this is working on my TI 4600 card as well. It's not quite as smooth as running it on a DX9 card, but its no bad by any means either. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NemesisNG Posted September 21, 2005 Share Posted September 21, 2005 Can also confirm this working on the Intel 82915G integrated graphics. Nice indeed. Nick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gazebee_ Posted September 21, 2005 Share Posted September 21, 2005 wow, but does anyone know if all this will run on my crappy ATI Radeon 9250 on PCI? (yup, no AGP, or PCI-E) :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Decryptor Veteran Posted September 21, 2005 Veteran Share Posted September 21, 2005 ohh, should try this on my GeForce 2 MX 400 PCI (no AGP aswell) bet it wont work. :yes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AQUaDeX Posted September 21, 2005 Share Posted September 21, 2005 To make it simpler, simply open Notepad, paste the following and save the file as Sex.reg Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\DWM] "EnableMachineCheck"=dword:00000000 Now double click on Sex.reg, click OK twice, then reboot Windows Vista. This will enable the new effects on older graphic cards or new graphics with no compatible LDDM drivers (such as nVidia cards on build 5219, using this method with Windows XP driver from www.nvidia.com works better than Vista LDDM drivers) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dotdot Posted September 25, 2005 Share Posted September 25, 2005 Nice one, interested to see how well I can run Vista`s visual effects on a 9600XT 256mb. I take it from some of the chatter here it should handle it pretty well. Im using a Geforce4 MX 32mb on this pc at mo, my own none online machine is the one with the XT.
