I don't think that your graphics card is compatible with Glass unfortunately
If it is listed as a compatible device, it could be that it will work in future
builds, but lately, the graphics requirements have been above what is listed for
glass in many cases, and one needs a more powerful card to get things working.
An example would be the latest Intel graphics adapter which is supposed to
support glass, but I haven't seen anyone with it on that GPU yet. One thing you
could try to get glass working though is lowering the screen resolution from
what you currently have it at. Also, there have been cases that I've seen where
running the command "winsat aurora" for 15 min. or so and then restarting has
gotten glass to work. (use ctrl+c to close out of "winsat aurora")

You are using a 3 or 4 generations old video card...it is not compatible...

Actually it is.

lower the screen resolution, make sure only 1 screen is enabled. Then run
the rating again. Reboot. Then try pressing win+tab couple times. It should
then be glassy with some luck. Rating needs to be 3 for the graphics I
think.

Yes, it's compatible. My GeForce FX 5200 AGP 128 DDR is working very
well with Aero Glass. You only need to download and install nVidia beta
drivers for Vista, and to check if your video card memory is at least
128 Megs.

Please don't respond to messages if you dont know or you suspect what
the answer is.

Mr.Fernando,

I also have FX5200 I tried to update the driver to NVidia vista beta driver.
The Device Mgr does not recognize this driver and hence fails to install. How
did you install the vista driver. Can you pl. give me the details.
Thanks

Mine is a 2 and I have glass with an nVidia 6600. I've read the 5200 works.

Hi,
I've installed these drivers as usual by running the setup executable.
If it doesn't work, try installing it at hand by updating the driver on
device manager and selecting the driver location option, then select the
folder on which drivers where uncompressed ("C:\NVIDIA" by default)
Please advise if this worked for you.
