Aero driving me crazy!!!

[TheXenonMyth]

Guys, really need ur help here. I built a new pc a month back. the specs are as follows-

AMD FX-4300 3.8 GHz

ASRock Pro2 Motherboard

Corsair Vengeance 4GB DDR3 1600MHz RAM

Antec VP450 450Watt PSU

MSI GTS450 1GB GDDR5(from my old system)

 

From day one, i've been facing this strange problem. My motherboard automatically set the memory speed at 1333 MHz, which i then myself set at the rated one. And now, whenever i boot into windows, my aero(DWM(Desktop Window Manager)) is disabled. One restart and BOOM! its fine and running like a happy cat. There are no performance issues although i did notice that the PC seemed to run a teensy bit slowly that is to say, the first startup(when aero gets disabled) takes a li'l bit more time than when i restart it. I've tried to boot with default settings too(memory speeds at auto, i.e. 1333). Didn't help though. Can the conflict be because of the AMD chipset and the Nvidia GPU?? Please help!

99% of motherboards set it to 1333 that's normal.. Also windows 8 is the fix, also a amd cpu makes no difference from a intel cpu relating to the video card that makes no sense really :')

I would go with windows 8. Just switched to it myself. I didn't think I would like it but you can do so much if you don't like the start menu.

nah, for me start menu is not the problem there, i dnt really have any problem not having the start menu. bt still guys, atleast i would still like to know the cause. as a techie, its just burning my curiosity...
