What about WARP?


Recommended Posts

What happened to WARP. You know the feature that permits a computer without aero compliant video card to be able to render aero using software. It still exists, it ever existed more than on paper? it will ever be released?

WARP is already part of Windows 7. It is a software renderer designed to be used in cases where DX10/11 hardware is not available or can't be used.

Aero could technically have used it, but that would have been a huge waste of resources that you likely want used for something else. It has never been stated that Aero would run on WARP, that's probably just something someone posted on their blog after not understanding what it is.
