Aero themes problems

I'm having problems with Aero themes in 32 bit colors after computer resume
from sleep/hibernate. Screen is messed up (see screenshot at
http://img20.imageshack.us/img20/8237/screenshoteq.jpg). I have
NVidia GForce 6200 chipset card, and now I have Windows 7 Ultimate x64, but
I had the same problem in Vista x64. If I move to 16 bit colors it solves,
also with basic theme without Aero. I tried many drivers updates but nothing
changed.
Please, anyone can help?
Thanks

That's an extremely old video card, poor performance compared to newer ones,
and if I'm not mistaken was not approved for the Premium (ie, Aero)
experience when Windows Vista was released - probably for reasons similar to
this one.

You could also try another screen resolution since you appear to be on
1360x768

Well, I agree, it's an old card, maybe I should buy a new one... but the
thing is it works fine when I turn on the PC (reboot), and nothing strange
happens until resume from sleep or hibernate.

Well, it's 1360x768 because I'm using it on my LCD TV, but I had the same
problem with lower resolutions on my CRT. I think I had the same problem not
only in Seven and Vista but Windows XP x64 too. Moving to Windows x86 could
be a solution too.

nVidia chose, for some reason, not to have it certified for Vista. Maybe
this is the reason. Maybe not. But the fact that it's not certified for
the Vista Premium program should tell you something.

Hi,

I read some time ago that 6600 is the least for a full Aero support. You
could try Nvidia forum for further confirmation.

Hope it helps and good luck.
