Tips for people who are stuck up with Vista Home Basic OEM version.
Well i've read in most in most articles across the web to enable the Aero in Vista Home Basic.
1) Run "regedit"
2) Navigate to "Hkey_Current_User \ Software \ Microsoft \ Windows \ DWM"
3) Change the value of the entry Composition to 1
4) Change the value of the entry CompositionPolicy to 0.
5) Now restart the computer.
6) Now go to Control Panel > Personalization > Window Color and Appearance.
7) When you are on Aero Standard you should now be able to see a color picker with sliders for choosing the colour of the Glass window decorations.
Well this only enables Aero in Vista Home Basic, not the 'Glass effect' like most people want. I tried to Google ways to get the 'Glass effect' but all give the same hack which never ends in the 'Glass Effect'.
You could always install WindowBlinds 6 ---> It's a shareware thing (not good idea imho).
But there is one free app available called Glass2k. Anyone interested in having 'Glass Effect' in their Vista Home Basic can download this free software from
here.
