When I'm in Microsoft Photo Gallery, and I tell it to do a slideshow, it tells me it can only do a "basic" slideshow becuase either my videocard or display settings are not "fully compatible". I am running an ATI Mobility Radeon X300 with 64MB of ram with ATI vista drivers. Aero Glass is running beautifully. Even media center slideshow looks great. I know that my card can handle the slideshow, but Vista thinks it can't. Anyone else have this problem?

Downgraded to "basic" slideshow
For Beta 2, the Vista slideshow requires 128 MB of video ram to run the rich themes. Unfortunately, if you are able to run Aero glass, it does not guarantee that you can run the rich slideshow. For RC1 / RTM we will be aligned with Aero.
