Aero á Pavilion dv1599EA tölvu

[KermitTheFrog]

Sælinú, er með tæplega 4ra ára gamlan lappa með Win 7 32bit uppsett. Mér hefur ekki tekist að fá aero til að virka og vildi athuga hvort tölvan einfaldlega réði ekki bara við það.
Í henni er s.s.
Pentium 2.0GHz single core örgjörvi
1GB 333MHz ram
Intel 915GM/GMS 910GML 128MB skjástýring
100GB hdd

Þegar ég troubleshoota Aero fæ ég upp "The video card may support Aero..." og eitthvað "update your video card drivers" en allir driverar sem ég hef prufað virka ekki.

Ræður hún við Aero vélbúnaðarlega séð?

Hvernig væri að prófa að Googla vandamálið sjálfur? Ég googlaði þetta og fékk upp þetta svar á heimasíðu Intel.

Q5: Why doesn’t the Intel 915 Express chipset family support Windows Vista Aero?

A5: The overall graphics architecture and design of the 915 Express chipset family (with Intel® Graphics Media Accelerator 900 graphics engine) was finalized prior to Microsoft releasing details and specifications around the Windows Display Driver Model (WDDM) driver. Given this, there are hardware limitations in the 915 Express chipset architecture that would limit graphics performance and memory capabilities when attempting to run WDDM on Vista.

The hardware limitations of 915/GMA900 graphics center around not having a large enough memory table to support Vista Aero, a key feature that is part of WDDM driver support. This, along with hardware restrictions on surface placement and graphics memory alignment, results in graphics memory usage that is not optimized for Aero performance. Additionally, the lack of native hardware support in the 915 Express chipset family for Vista’s dynamic memory management would result in slower graphics performance and a sub-optimal user experience with Windows Vista Aero.

With these identified limitations, the 915/GMA900-based graphics system would not have met the performance requirements for Aero desktop composition support under Vista. This ultimately led to the decision to begin WDDM support with the Intel 945 Express chipset products, as Intel addressed these hardware limitations with the desktop and mobile Intel 945 Express chipset families.

To provide the best performance and user experience with Windows Vista on Intel 915/GMA900 platforms, Intel will support Windows Vista on 915/GMA900 with the drivers based on the XP driver model.
