I have a HPdv1000 with the intel 915 chipset. Does anyone know if it is possible to run windows 7 beta without aero on this chipset? I just want windows 7 to run with the correct resolution. It would be nice to have Aero but I know this is not possible with this chipset. I just want to make sure I can still have the right resolution.
Thank you all for your time and help!

Ensure that you choose the native resolution recommended for your screen for the best display quality. 3. Aero Theme: - As you mentioned, the Aero Glass theme might not be available due to the limitations of the Intel 915 chipset. You can choose a basic theme in Windows 7 for a simpler interface without the Aero effects. By following these steps, you should be able to run Windows 7 Beta on your HPdv1000 laptop with the correct resolution even if the Aero feature is not available.
