Try this guide on turning on Aero:

I seem to remember something about WDDM drivers and the like needed for Aero but it's years since I last used Aero itself. Let me wake up properly, drink some coffee and hopefully the memories will return.. Seriously I'll do some research and post back but it could be down to something like that.

Have you installed the Nvidia driver/software package for it from Nvidia? What bit type is your OS....32 or 64? The minimum PSU (power supply) requirement is a 350 watt...do you meet that?

The driver on the cd will be out of date. Try installing the latest version:

Do you mean the driver won't install or the driver installs but doesn't work?
Try this link here:
