Aero - Home Premium

Forum Windows Vista : General Discussion Aero - Home Premium

Isn't Home Premium supposed to have the Aero functionality?

If yes, I can't seemed to find a setting anywhere to invoke it.

Also the live thumbnails do not pop up when hovering over my taskbar programs.

Any help would be appreciated.

when you install vista it automatically loads vista basic theme (no aero), you have to enable it by right-clicking desktop, then select theme to Aero, thumbnails are a part of aero, so when you enable it they will appear when you move your mouse over taskbar programs

I don't see an option for Aero.

I would post a screen shot of what my options are but I do not see a way to post an image or file.

My options are:

My current Theme
Windows Vista (this is what it is set to)
Windows Classic
Browse...

Any further suggestions?

it might not be under the theme, i can't remember exactly where, but it's in the options windows somewhere, take a closer look

O.K. found it, thanks.

They sure tucked that one away just a bit. It is even harder to find that wizard later when you have already set it to Aero. Not very intuitive on their part.

Thanks again.
