If you use HomeBasic you don't get Aero Flip/Transparency/Flip3D and Taskbar
Thumbnails.
If you have a higher editon, then it depends on the graphics card and the
driver.
Run the vista upgrade advisor ( yes it works in vista itself ) - it will
tell you details IF your card is Aero ready.

Try supplying which version of Vista you have and what your hardware is.
Makes it far easier for folks to wrap their arms around your problem. For
example: "I'm running Vista Home Premium and I have a Blah-blah-blah video
card with a gazillion megs of ram and my pc has totally, like, more RAM than
you could ever use... but my hard disk is only 2GB's." You know, some more
info...

Go to "control panel" then "system". Click on "windows experience index"
then click "update my score"
If your computer is capable of aero it should automatically enable by default.

May be the following workaround helps:
1. Ensure that you have the following registry value set to :
HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\DWM\Composition set to 1 (32-bit
DWORD)
HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\DWM\CompositionPolicy set to 2
(32-bit DWORD)
2. Restart DWM by opening a command prompt with administrative
privileges:
- Type 'net stop uxsms'
- Then 'net start uxsms'
