Is it possible? for some reason WB6 doesn't wanna install so i can't use their skins to make it look like Aero, i heard Aero Glazz puts an aero effect on your window when maximized but that's pretty pointless, anyone have anything good about Aero on Basic that they'd like to share?

P.S. An index Score of 3.0 is the minimum requirement to run the Aero Experience on Premium and Ultimate.

Hi,

I'm not sure what you are searching for. If you want to run Vista's Aero, you should know that it is not available for the Basic version. If you are searching for 3rd party software, then maybe someone else has any ideas.

That's exactly for what i was hoping that someone would tell me, if they knew any software that ACTUALLY works on basic, i know these things are possible, as I'm running Windows DreamScene on a GENUINE windows Vista Basic

Although Aero itself does not work on BASIC, Customize.org might have some really good looking themes that you can use to give you an Aero like look, even on BASIC. All the instructions for patching the uxtheme and whatnot will be there as well.
