    How to enable Aero Shake in the Classic theme?

    I have the laptop affected with the GPU Nvidia overheating/desoldering issue, and would not like to use aero glass because it will use more GPU processing..

    When I switch to classic theme, the shake does not work anymore

    thanks

    I thought nvidia replaces those cards for free if they break because of that? After all, it's their fault it's broken than.

    Yeah, you should contact nvidia about the issue. They have to replace it for free.

    If they can, nvidia is kind of dying at the moment, killed by ati :D

    Besides trying to get that fixed.

    It is called Aero Shake, hence the word Aero. Need the eyecandy turned on.

    Yup, Aero Shake is a component of the Aero UI. If you want to use it you have to turn Aero on. Otherwise, it's a no go.

    Call me crazy, but I don't think that Aero Shake is all that of an important or vital feature. Sure it looks good, but if you want everything on the screen to be gone, simply click the "Show Desktop" on the right, then accordingly choose whichever windows you want to open.

    What is important, however, is getting that graphic card of your fixed ;).

    The problem with HP is that like a pirate dvd store.. they replace a bad disc with another bad disc.. ie: the HP fix is just replacing your defective motherboard with another 'defective by design' motherboard.. you still get the same problem again after some time

    see the hplies etc site for the problems that people face...

    I guess not many people brought HP with the overheating issue here.

    Thanks for the lifehacker link. I will try that..
