    This is the bit, but I guess it's just a cultural/language barrier.

    It suggests we would not be a good choice to ask for advice - in fact it suggests we would be your last choice, suggesting our advice is worthless.

    Does the basic version have Aero support? It seems like the basic version of Vista didn't...

    Looks like someone has made a tool to enable it though:

    Hi there KK,

    Long time no talk?

    I understood you when you said that AO was your "last hope"................English is a very funny language isn't it

    Can you tell us a bit more about your new machine, as this may be important. You say that it is a laptop, so you didn't build it yourself; and OEMs all do things their own different ways The make and model would help.

    Right now, I cannot help too much as I only have 7 running on a hastily assembled tower machine.....................however, come later on today (Icelandic volcanoes permitting) my wife will return with my new craptop, which should have 7 on it, so I can experiment for you.

    Talk to you later,

    Cheers,

    Johnno

    Hi KK,

    My understanding is that Win 7 Home Basic does not support Aero out of the box.I suspect that the Windows + Tab effect needs Aero. It certainly works on my new laptop, but that boots Home Premium, so supports Aero.

    i found other weird thing gpedit.msc is not there instead i found only gpedit.dll in my windows/system32 folder..
    Same here, and in the 64Bit folder. It is now called gpupdate I believe as that is an application and I have it in both 32 and 64 bit folders.

    @westin, I wonder if that works if you only have a cut down OEM's version of Windows, rather than the full blown thing from a CD? I believe that the CD contains all versions but only activates the one you have a licence for.

    I would guess that OEMs shipping kit that only supports Home Basic will have removed the others?
