got aero glass on my compaq turion64 with ati radeon expres

V2582...v2000 Read somewhere that it couldnt be done. Wasnt able to load the driver from Ati's site.
Somehow ended up with a microsoft driver dated 6/21/06? and "standard VGA graphics adapter" in the hard ware manager. Uninstalled all ati.....downloaded the driver installer package, and still could never change the driver. Rollback option wasnt there... Vista basic the only display option...Looked nice but no aero.
Reinstalled vista... upgrade, not clean... and lo and behold....theres aero.
"ati radeon express 200m WDDM" shows in the properties for the graphics adapter.....and Gaming graphics reads 256mb. Im no expert...Just a semi power user...and I was disppointed that everything I read couldnt help me get aero on this laptop. Never had the audio problem BTW.

Windows Vista
