Hello
I am wondering.. Did anyone succeed to enable aero on Windows Vista(guest), on host Windows 7? 
Thanks for the answers
Accepted Solutions
You can't enable aero as it requires directx 10 and VMware currently only supports dx9 shader model 2.
I've heard (but not tried myself) that there's a work around by connecting via remote desktop to your guest on an aero capable host.
As your host is probably aero capable.. that's what you could try...
I'd be interested to hear your findings

I know about this and tried it, but unfortunately it didn't work out for me 
Hey that's cool... thanks for the update (and the points)
As for your Vista question. What kind of Vista is this..?
Is it Vista Ultimate or Vista Enterprise... the howto geek article lists that only those 2 versions support aero glass in a remote desktop connection.

Hi,
This page talks about setting the right connection speeds:

I also read that the RDP version in win7 is newer as in vista so it might also be a compatibility issue of some sort.
