Why isn't my windows vista aero/flip working?

Question

It was working a while ago and i know I have home premium..

Now, when I do the windows icon + tab combo, the computer just scrolls through links... Also when i click the 'switch between windows' button, i just get a basic view instead of the 3D one. Just to repeat; this was working earlier.

Answer 1

try refreshing your windows experience index.

Answer 2

You might have accidently disabled this feature or some program did it for you. (Some programs do not support the Aero Interface and switches to the Vista Basic Interface when running.)

To enable the Aero Interface right click the Desktop, select personalize and go to the Window Color and Appearence. in the bottom click Open classic appearence for more color options and select Vista Aero.

If you can't find any program disabling Aero or you can't activate using the above method try re-installing your Video Card Drivers.
