    As far as I knew it isn't possible, because the Intel integrated graphics don't support Pixel shaders or proper hardware acceleration. You can't 'hack' insufficient hardware. Get a theme mod off the net or something that doesn't need you to have decent video hardware.

    actually yeah u can..install "vista manager" then open it then click system speed, then chose performance tab and the last option is to enable aero on older pcs.
