programs not start

Hi, I have Windows Vista Beta 2 build 5384. When I try to open some programs like controll panel and windows photo gallery nothing happens, it just soesnt load. Also When I try to open Controll Panel only the edge of the program appears nothing in the midlle. Any help would be apreciated, Cej P.S I dony have aero, How do I get it

Its possible that this is bad install, Control Panel items loads just fine here, so does Photo Gallery. Was this is a clean install or upgrade from a prior version of Windows? Are there any error messages, are the Control Panel and Photo Gallery issues the only ones you are experiencing?
As for Glass, that depends on if your video card is supported. Could you tell us the model and brand you are using and vRAM its using? Vista requires a minimum 64-MBs of vRAM work, 128 MB recommended. -- -- Andre Windows Connected | http://www.windowsconnected.com Extended64 | http://www.extended64.com Blog | http://www.extended64.com/blogs/andre http://spaces.msn.com/members/adacosta

HI, I have A dell XPs M140 with Intel Media Accelerator, [I found out it is not sufficient for Aero] 2.00 ghz processor. When I say I see just the edges for Controll Panel I mean the window opens and you can see the border around it with the minimize exit and enlarge buttons but hte "interior" is just a mirror image of what is behind it. After that it just closes, There are no error messges. On Windows photo Gallery when you click it nothing at all happens, nothing whatsoever. This was not a clean install. I wonder if it is possible to format the hardrive and then reinstall [worst case scenario] the os. Thanks for the help on aero but if What I have heard is correct its not worth the hassle. Thanks, Ps is there a way to run diagnostics on the operating system to see what the prblem is. "Andre Da Costa [Extended64]" wrote:
