The Desktop Window Manager, is primarily responsible for the aero graphical interface. If you've installed a theme or some other graphics mod, it could be causing the DWM to crash/fail.

I want Aero stuff disabled and all of the other fancy-useless video crap as well. I did not install any themes or graphic mods. I have widows classic theme set. I cannot find where to disable Aero.
