Hey so today when i turned on my PC i was greeted with a .5 second blue screen then a normal boot, in windows i see my theme is no longer working.

After doing some research i found it was Aero and i can't get it to start working again unless i switch my theme to the Windows 7 basic one.

I ran Microsoft Aero fix it and i get this error "video card does not support required display settings. your video card does not support direct x 9 or higher, pixel shade model 2.0 or higher, or doesn't have sufficient memory or memory bandwidth required to display aero effects such as transparency"

I have a gtx 680...

help plz?

 

i tried re installing my driver for my graphics card.. no good.

 

this is how my theme looked

I'd say leave it, that looks way better than any of the normal Aero themes :P
