[QUOTE="Owlsroost, post: 409544, member: 83973"] I run Vista Home Basic 32 - my reg key settings are: [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\DWM] "Composition"=dword:00000001 "ColorizationOpaqueBlend"=dword:00000000 "CompositionPolicy"=dword:00000002 (reboot) I then select 'Windows Vista Standard' in 'Personalize the desktop - Window colour and appearance' - this is as close to the Aero desktop as you can get in Home Basic - you should see 'shaded' window colouring instead of 'flat' colouring. MP runs fine for me using EVR - on hardware less powerful than your system, and I play a lot of HD 1080i content to a 1080p display.
