Aero Glass Question

Does Aero Glass only utilize the video card or does it utilize both the video card and the CPU? I'm assuming only the video card since I hear about how dragging Aero Glass windows and resizing Aero Glass windows reduce the amount of CPU usage. Thanks.

I would say both, since the UI is rendered through the Desktop Window Manager which is a process you find under TaskManager, but for the rendering and shading, thats done through the GPU. -- Andre Extended64 | http://www.extended64.com Blog | http://www.extended64.com/blogs/andre http://spaces.msn.com/members/adacosta "Travis King" wrote in message
