To force transparency do the following:

1. Click Start, Run.

2. Type "regedit" (without the quotes).

3. Navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft

4. Create a key called DWM.

5. Inside of that key, create a new DWORD value called EnableMachineCheck, and set it to 0

6. Create another DWORD called Blur, and set that to 0

7. Create another DWORD called Animations and set that to 0.

If you force this glass will most probably run slow since your graphics card isn't fully supported. If it runs fine then you might want to add blur effects and animations. Just set your Blur DWORD to 1 and your animations DWORD to 1.

Hope this helps.

CHRIST does this forum need a spell checker...

Firstly, You shouldn't even be using it if your not an official tester. I could even barely understand what you posted. Also, there is a reason why your card isnt spitting out glass, its probably not a DirectX 9 native video card, and its probably a crappy 32MB onboard..

ROFL :laugh:

hm, sorry about that then, you might be able to get glass using those reg hacks, might not be pretty, but its worth a try.

[lotus22]

Anyone find the hack for this.

I am running a Intel? 82845G Graphics Controller.

I had an earlier build of vista and through the register I got the glass to work. Does anyone know the new hack for build 5270?

[LukeWard7]

What would happen if u tried this on Windows XP?

You may have struck gold on that one! I just tried it on my XP SP2 box and I got the vista glass effects!!! Thanks for the info!

[andrew_f]

Doesn't work for me :(

Do you have to use royale?

[freedom77]

LOL.. something tells e your pic is fake krun..

[andrew_f]

Oh lol, and heres me trying to get it working :( ;)

wow from your posts, you seem like a really nice and friendly person.

if this person is or is not an offical tester, why the hell do you care?

usually when i do not understand something, i move on, not make nasty comments.

Perhaps a grammar checker as well.

'Isnt' isn't a word. 'Its' is a possesive form of it. I'm sure you meant it's - the contraction of it is. You should change the order of the words 'even' and 'barely' for better clarity.

Sorry, just trying to use the same measure.

[m1h4]

Yes, yes! You have to use Royale and stand on your head while your left hand is in your right pocket and at the same time slowly say "haaaammmmaaaa-voodoo-tesssooorrr-iiiii-aaaaaammmmm-veeerrryyy-iiiigggnnnorrannntttt" and it will work!

[chopyaedoff]

Is it possible to get it working on XP - if not - how did he get that effect (I doubt it has been altered)

Chuck Norris hates noobs who can't spell! :shiftyninja:

[LukeWard7]

Can we not talk about spelling and answer my question 'Can it be done'?.

[advancedboy]

No it can't be done on XP. Transparency can be done, with a few third party programs that can do it, but not glass (unless WB has it, I'm not sure...)

[chopyaedoff]

The taskbar can be made transparent with transbar.

And the whole windows can be made transparent - but not just the titlebar.

WB5 does just the toolbar. If you convert a .msstyle of the theme you want to a wb theme, you could probably mod it and make it the perfect tranmsparent. Plus, there's hardly a noticable speed difference. You can even put the window over a visualizer in iTunes and it won't slow down, it's quite fun.
