vista problem

[reubix]

I apologize for sending you on a wild goose hunt. :laughing: As I said I was on the XP machine.

Anyways to answer your more recent question and to resolve your problem.

Right click on your desktop and select Personalize.

Then navigate your cursor to Window Color and Appearance.

On the Window Color and Appearance screen towards the bottom click "Open classic appearance properties for more color options."

Under Color Scheme select Windows Aero. Then click apply then click OK to close that window.

ALT+TAB should give you a preview of the windows instead of an icon now.

You'll also be able to set window transparency now.

Hope that helps.

Maybe you should learn to use the software before you bash it.

I found the Window Color and Appearance screen but didn't find the classic appearance properties near the bottom.

Then you options should be there. It should look like this and the Windows Aero should be your first option...
