Tips & Tricks: Disabling Windows Vista Aero

by Milo on April 26th, 2007

You might have bought a PC running Windows Vista with shared video and average specs. You would not really notice the drag in performance until you begin to install applications and when that happens you might consider disabling Windows Vista Aero.

Disabling Aero is simple; right click on the desktop and Click on Personalize:

Windows Vista Personalize Popup Menu

Click on Window and Color Appearance.

Windows Aero Appearance

On the Color Scheme drop down, choose a lesser scheme other than aero, then click ok.

Windows Aero Properties

You will notice a big performance difference when disabling Windows Aero.The color scheme is great but with limited hardware, it would be best to keep a low maintenance Windows Vista PC.
