I have a 2.6 reading for base score video card (2.6) all other are at
least 4.0. I have 2 gigs of ram and 256 on video card. I understand that
anything under 3.0 will not run aero. How can I tell if I am running aero?
If your close icon is the size of your maximize and minimize buttons in the
corner of every window then you're running Aero. If you close icon is the
same size as the maximize or minimize buttons you're running the basic
theme.
Aero may run on lower cards, the system will try it out, if it starts
getting performance issues it turns it off. I can usually get it running ok
on a GeForce Go 5200 (which scores 1.0) at 1400x1050 resolution if I only
have a couple of windows open.
