Have you got quicktime installed? If so stop it from starting up and restart then try to put it back

Now try to enable aero again. If its not in the list you can't have it and you must be lying =p
tried that, and all the other optiond there too.. Aero is still on the list, but it wont come off basic. And i know for definate that i've had aero before.

Also google the enable aero registry hacks. If your gfx card does in fact support aero then you should be able to enable it with one of these ways.
..these wont do any other harm to anything, will it?

some programs just aren't compatible with it, just ctrl+alt+del programs until aero comes back to find whats doing it
quote:Limewire uses an old version of java which isnt compatible, the latest version of java is though

It is mainly programs that make use of Java. Limewire, certain websites that use Java Applets.
