Hey Everyone.

I just got a new computer and it came pre-installed with windows vista home premium edition.

How can I turn on/off the windows Aero feature? I cant seem to find it and everything looks so different than XP... it'll take some time to get used to this.

Thanks for your help.

Right click on desktop -> Personalize

Window Colour and Appearance

Uncheck the 'Enable transparancy' or select the 'open classic appearance properties' and select the Windows Vista Basic Colour scheme.

i have it set like that, but when I alt+tab to switch screens, i get the standard option like how it was in xp, not the cool 3d window switching feature.

You have to 'Windows Key' tab to get the 3D program switch thing. Whatever it's called.
