64 MB was the minimum before RC2 . AFAIK with RC2 and the RTM release the
minimum changed to 128.

Except 64mb is the minimum required. 128mb is the more the minimum
recommended. I could run it on my ATI mobility radeon x300 w/ 64mb of
memory, 512mb of system memory. Of course, I've upgraded system memory
since then, but Aero works fine on that configuration.

Aero only requires a graphics card with 128MB of memory. My onboard Intel
graphics chip with up to its max of 128MB of memory allocated works fine
with Aero. It did not work when I had onl 64MB allocated.

Look at any new graphics card.. 256mb is good..



Yeah, even a 256Mb X1300 or 7300 will be more than enough for Aero
