Okay so they said they fixed the problem where the screen saver would cause Aero to screw up.....so now 7.0.12 basically appears to cause aero to not only be disabled and the screen to blank out more often, but disappears from the choices all together, so it cannot be re-enabled. Previously, even if it was disabled, when you exited the program in 7.0.10 it would re-enable itself upon program exit. Now the only way to get it back is to completely restart the computer.
Why can this not be fixed? It runs more stable on my laptop which also runs an Nvidia card.
Nvidia 8600 GT PCI
Vista Ultimate
Vista Aero Problems Anyone?
In Vista you have to manually enable the "real" Administrator account so I logged into this account (rather than disabling UAC) and re-installed the nVidia drivers except that I used the gforce forceware drivers from guru3d. I also updated the Java to the latest version apparently this can also disable aero when your computer encounters an old version...and they did recently update to a new version. So far seems to be working better.
