The RC1 Vista Drivers were released on September 8th and certainly not the
ones that came with your card go to the NVIDIA website and downlaod the RC1 Vista drivers nor are they available yet with VISTA or Vista WinUpdate. Check the HP Website for a BIOS update for our computer mode. The instruections for the update are most likely with the update itself. "jfr" wrote in message ...

I had this problem too, solved it, and then couldn't remeber what I had done
to fix it - then this morning I found the answer again. Right click on the desktop and choose 'Personalize', from the new dialog box choose 'Window Color and Appearance'. Right at the bottom of all the options there is a blue text link 'Open classic appearance properties for more color options'. Click on this and it will give you the option to set it to 'Aero'. Clicking the advanced button will allow you to change fonts etc for all the other windows settings. |
