 * Disable Aero to Run Incompatible Applications **

The Aero interface gives Windows 7 systems a much improved look and feel compared to Windows XP, with special effects that take advantage of your PC’s graphics card to create transparent windows and 3D application choosers. Unfortunately, some applications are not compatible with Aero. Usually, Windows will tell you when this is the case and disable the Aero effects while the problem application is running. However, this does not always happen, in which case you need to manually configure the problem application to turn off Aero while it runs.

Here is how:-


 * 1) Right-click on the shortcut of the problem application in the Start menu and choose **Properties**.
 * 2) Click on the **Compatibility** tab.
 * 3) In the Settings section, tick the option **Disable desktop composition**.
 * 4) Click **OK**.

When you now launch the application from the shortcut, Aero will be disabled while the application is open, hopefully eliminating problems.
