Disable Unnecessary Graphical Effects

Vista is “sexy” because of its new aero glass transparency effects. Here is how to enable and disable this new eye candy.
1. Click Start (Windows) button
2. Select the Control Panel
3. Double-click Click Appearance and Personalization
4. Under Personalization, click Change the color scheme
5. In the Appearance Settings dialog box, click Windows Vista Basic, and then click OK.


Or, if you prefer a Windows 2000-style interface, click Windows
Standard, and then click OK.
