Hi, I got vista a few days ago, the 3d flip worked fine when i first started
using it, a few days later it stopped working, it now only displays small icons instead of the 3d windows, cant think what I may have done or how to activate it again...any ideas thanks, Smiffy |

Hi Smiffy ,
Are you pressing the windows key plus the tab key, and not alt and tab ? ............................................Gr@y "smiffybaby" wrote in message ...

Hi, Even when i press alt and tab all that gets brought up is a box in the
center of the screen with a small icon of all the windows i have open instead of the 3d flip. the only thing i can think that may have change something is installing msn 7.5, but i am pretty sure i had this problem before that Smiffy.

Again, you must press *WINDOWS KEY* plus Tab...*NOT* Alt plus Tab.

smiffy,
I get this all the time on my laptop because I cannot run the Aero Glass theme. If your computer is able to run the full Aero theme (you said it used to work, so i'm guessing it does!) I would check the Theme settings and make sure it's on the correct setting!

I have the same problem, I ran iTunes and it converted to vista basic, now I
can't get it to change back, my system requirements are more than capable, i have Java 6 and there are no "non Microsoft" processes running |

The same thing is happenin to me, I just got a new computer a few days ago,
and now the 3D flip is not working? I have no idea, it was before, and now I just get the little window with small icons in it to choose from. I know I could press ALT+TAB, or the windows+TAB, neither work or they just do the same thing with the box of icons. I know someone knows this one????

If you press CTRL+WINDOWS+TAB you will get areo. If you press any other
combination of keys ie: ALT+TAB you will get the window of icons. Otherwise you do not have Aero set up correctly. "makin-moves" wrote in message ...
