Aero Glass trouble, it works, sort of...

[Guest]

I am running into an interesting problem with Aero Glass on my computer. I
did a clean install of Vista build 5384 x64 edition. Everything with the
install went perfectly, until I got to my windows desktop for the first time.
Aero was functioning, however certain areas of the screen, depending on where
my mouse is and what windows are open, blink in black... It is extremly hard
to look at, hurts the eyes big time... So I managed to stare through the
blinking and change the visual apperance to Vista Basic.... Voila now it
works perfectly....

I am at a loss here, my video card is supported, it is a Geforce
FX5200XT(128mb), and I downloaded the newest nvidia drivers available...
However, nothing has fixed this weird blinking problem I am running into with
Aero enabled.

I have the same card and I am not experiencing this in either x86 or x64
Vista. Could be a bad install. I would file a report using the following

I have exactly the same problem with x32 on an ATI X1900 XTX. The best way to
reproduce it, is to load notepad, full screen it and slowly move the mouse from
one side the the other. There's four verticle regions that suffer the problem.

Looks like the mouse cursor is getting corrupt to me.
