transparancy in vista

I currently run Windows vista Ultimate on my laptop which doesn't support the clear windows effect and I'm wondering if WindowBlinds features the clear windows for Vista.

If your hardware won't support it, Windowblinds can't display it.

I have the same problem dvljigen.

However, I have partitioned my hard drive and installed Windowblinds 6 on both XP and Vista Ultimate. Transarency works on the XP partition, but not on the Vista partition !?

On the same machine !

I cant figure out why, unless it has something to do with Vista using up alot of graphical resources, not leaving enough for Windowblinds ?

*Gutted* ...but glad I kept my XP partition !

WindowBlinds - Free yourself of the default settings, customize your desktop.

No...it's just the way Vista works regarding DWM and WDDM stuff. Bit backwards really, a downgrade in that sense.
