• Aero Peek doesn't work now does not

  Here's all the sordid details.  Mobile workstation HP 8760w with Nvidia Quadro 3000 M GPU, 8 GB of RAM, Windows 7 64-bit, 128 GB SSD,... etc. 18 months of use, has been remarkable.  Last week, Aero Peek suddenly stopped working. I tried all sorts of things, including the following, without result;

  (1) restoration of the system of at least three different times, earlier (no updates were applied before failing Aero).

  (2) deleted the cache of WIndows Experience Index and re-reun coast at least a dozen times (it must be deleted or it crashes) (result of-7, 1-7.5)

  (3) personalization troubleshooting Aero reports without errors or questions.

  (4) Microsoft FIxIt Aero Troubleshooter says my video can't run Aero (though again, it has 18 months).

  (5) deleted, updated, modified, deleted, updated, changed... For the Quadro 3000 M NVIDIA drivers (even to aid version of HP on their Web site).

  (6) update of the BIOS and other firmware/drivers from HP on this laptop.

  7) opened a case with Nvidia (still in the wait - they ask me if I have uninstalled and reinstalled it, even though I told them that I have 10 times).

  (8) tried to run without Nvidia software installed at all.

  (9) checked for EnableAeroPeek registry entry by many other suggestions and articles. Even some added and then removed the other.

  (10) created a new Admin profile locally on the laptop.

  (11) run a SFCScan and it came back fine.

  Aero options do not appear in the Visual effects and the opton use Aero Peek in the properties of the Start Menu is grayed out.  It sent me down a lot, a lot of articles.  No resolution.  Everyone has been through this pain?

  I'll put my SSD in another laptop as she (we bought 4 of them at the same time) to see if it's related material... but nothing else that seems the Aero affected, so I'm skeptical, it's going to do anything.  I'm just * hope * Miss me something.

  If you have updated your Windows then uninstall the update of platform for Windows 7 (KB2670838) and your problem should be solved.

  Before I updated my Windows this month I just checked if Microsoft still offer this update. This is in the optional list. I installed so I thought to manually upgrade to IE10 because he wasn't in the IE9 update list. So I did manually and after that check updates again and to my surprise this update has disappeared completely. I have an old PC as well, and after installing all the updates I still have no problems so far. I recommend that you upgrade to IE10 after uninstalling this update (if you updated with that and faced the problem) to get rid of the update forever. But do it at your own risk, because I never updated my machine with this defective update and see if that caused any problems with my machine.

• Aero peek doesn't work do not

  Aero peek doesn't work! When I put my mouse on the taskbar at the bottom of my computer, it shows just the words and not the smaller window icon. When I go to the properties of the taskbar, it is gray and I can't enable or disable it. I read some of the other issues people here and I didn't know that Office 2007 can be part of the problem. I have Office 2010 could this be the problem? This air look was one of the features that Windows boasted of and now it does not work? I'm not happy about it and nobody seems to have a solution for it! Why not??? I want answers please.

  You must have the Aero Glass theme enabled to use Aero Peek. Right-click on your desktop, click Customize > select Windows Aero under Aero themes.

• Windows 7 - Aero Peek doesn't work

  Hello!

  Well, it looks like Aero peek working at all. It is activated in the task bar, and in the task 'Visual effects', everything is selected. I am also unable to flip flop.

  I use Windows vista edition Home premium that I just bought.
  Any advice?

  Hello Nico884,

  With all the steps that have been taken to solve the problem, it is rather likely, not a setting, but a corrupt user profile. You will not lose any software that you have installed by using a new user profile. You can easily transfer your data to the new profile so, take a look at the difficulty of a user profile is corrupted.

  Hope this helps Chris.H

• Aero Peek features stop working.

  I tried to reach the service the customer in this respect, but whenever I type in my product ID of Windows 7 to help it says "there was a problem with the product ID.  Please re - enter... "and I can not get anywhere.

  In any case, I've just upgraded to Windows 7 a few days ago.  I noticed that the characteristics of transparency and peek stop working after a while.  Sometimes it's for a day, sometimes only a few hours.  I made sure that all the options are checked on Aero in the Panel of control Performance and information tools.  The only way to get these features is running again is to restart the computer.

  Here are my computer specs: HP a6755y.  Windows 7 Pro 64 bit.  6 GB OF RAM.  AMD Phenom 2.2 Ghz.  Video ATI HD3200 card.

  Help, please!  It is very annoying.  Thank you.

  Hello Brian5987456,

  I could go to the HP website and see if they have updated all drivers for your videocard ATI HD3200. Make sure that you get the right driver for Windows 7 64-bit.

  http://h10025.www1.HP.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareCategory?OS=4063&LC=en&cc=us&DLC=en&sw_lang=&product=3870521#N1410

  If they do not have an updated driver, you can check with ATI.

  You can also view a clean boot to see if there is any other software which may be in conflict and cause a problem. Use this article for steps to a clean boot.

• Overview of the bar of tasks Aero or aero peek doesn't work do not

  Hi, I use Windows 7 Enterprise and I recently lost my overview of the taskbar. As usual, I went through Microsoft Community and checked for solutions. Bouquet of ideas were just to use the theme AERO or through advanced Visual effects and by selecting the Advanced setting to improve the appearance etc. etc. NOTHING HAS WORKED. Then I tried opening 'gpedit.msc' and checking if "Disable the taskbar thumbnails" is enabled or disabled. He showed "not configured", so I changed to disabled and restarted my laptop. Yet once, IT did NOT WORK for ME.  So I thought to post this question myself.

  Please if anyone has the solution to work, help me. Its quite difficult to work without a preview when you need to keep switching between different tasks.

  Thanks in advance.

• When I update Windows 7, Aero no longer works

  This seems to be a common problem, but I was not able to find a solution. I currently run an ASUS laptop with Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit, processor i7 Q720 and GPU NVidia GTX260M. I always installed updates as required, however, when I install updates currently aero effects no longer work.

  I tried the troubleshooting, and it detects any problems. I checked that my monitor is running in true color (32 bit) and everything seems fine here. I also have the latest NVidia driver.

  If I restore the system before the update, it will return to operation. I thought he was one of the updates of windows that did, so I installed each individually (IE 10 and a defender of windows update) but the result is the same in either. I then tried to install an optional update randomly and the same thing happened. Any suggestions?

  If you have updated your Windows then uninstall the update of platform for Windows 7 (KB2670838) and your problem should be solved.

  Before I updated my Windows this month I just checked if Microsoft still offer this update. This is in the optional list. I installed so I thought to manually upgrade to IE10 because he wasn't in the IE9 update list. So I did manually and after that check updates again and to my surprise this update has disappeared completely. I have an old PC as well, and after installing all the updates I still have no problems so far.
  System Restore may also help in some cases.

• The Aero Peek feature does not work on my computer that I've recently upgraded to the version of Win 7 Home Premium 32 bit.

  After you have installed Windows 7 Home premium, I noticed that the aero peek feature does not systematically after a fresh reboot upward. Sometimes when I turn on my computer the aero peek feature turns on immediately and works well. On other occasions when I turn it on it just does not come to the top. I had the box customize and found the checked enable aero peek. Still aero peek doesn't work. So to summarize if aero peek turns on it works fine. However, it does not illuminate whenever I boot my machine eventhough that the box is checked. Please notify.

  Try this: launch REGEDIT, navigate to HKEY_CURRENT_USER and make sure that EnableAeroPeek is set to 1, rather than 0.
  It can help.

• AERO Peek stopped working after a few adjustments with HP to get my Photosmart printer to work

  I just upgraded a fairly new computer of mine from Vista to Windows 7 Professional.  The upgarde went well however the AERO Peek stopped working after a few adjustments with HP to get my Photosmart printer to work.  I tried to make the show thumbnails of running programs to display in the taskbar with no luck.  Any suggestions?

  Hi Lisa52465,

  (Already responded to dadams26 in a separate thread and it fixed the problem beautifully).

  Have you tried to run the Aero Troubleshooter? If this is not the case, try this:

  1. open the control panel

  2. go in the system and security category

  3. go to the Center of the Action

  4. click on the link to solve common computer problems

  5. click on appearance and personalization

  6. Select Aero

  He must either correct the errors problem or the State to determine the cause.

  If the Aero Troubleshooter is not the thing, maybe it's just that the Aero feature has been disabled by the update. Try this:

  1. right click on the desktop

  2 select Customize

  3. Select an Aero theme

  4 see if previews back

  Just for the record, could you let us know if any of the suggested fixes works (and which). If you still have problems after trying the above, could you please come back with more details (if possible).

  Joe,

  What happens, the error message? Try this...

  1. update your video drivers via the OEM Web site, installation and reboot.

  If that does not do...

  2. do a system restore before updating the system.

  Also, make sure that you turn off the automatic updates before you do any of these suggestions.

• I have Win 7 64 bit - aero peek stopped working.

  I have checked the selection under properties and find that it is grey. How to run again

  Found the answer!
  Go to control panel - performance and options (find it by typing in the search box) - and set for a 'look '.
  I had it for "best performance" which apparently disables aero peek.

• HP Pavilion 15n - upgrade issues lower windows 7 (FN, aero peek and sleep keys)

  Hello

  I recently bought a HP Pavilion 15 (n097), which is pre-installed with windows 8... naturally I went down to Windows 7 and installed as a good number of pilots required system I could get my hands - everything seems to have worked pretty well, the only problem now is that:

  (1) I have no option "sleep" in the start menu, it is grayed out (only to stop, restart and hibernate are available)

  (2) making the skimming between surprisingly heavy programs is not supported by aero peek

  (3) none of the function buttons work

  I would be VERY grateful if anyone knew where I might be able to install the necessary drivers so that I can fix these problems were.

  Thanks in advance.

  You are the very welcome.

  Sorry the quick launch of the software did not work.  Unfortunately, I won't be able to provide additional assistance to this issue because I don't know any other software that you can use for this purpose.

  Here is the link for the graphics drivers that you need.

  If you have not installed the Chipset Intel driver, I highly recommend you first install and reboot the computer before installing the graphics driver.
