    Hello Folks

    I have been trying to make Aero work on Windows 7 Ultimate (64 bit) on Parallels Desktop Build 4.0.3848.
    Despite having a strong configuration, the Windows Performance Index shows the following giving me a score of 1.0 in Gaming Graphics.

    I checked Device Manager and the display Adapter is "Parallels Video Adapter". I did some research and it does not show WDDM which i guess it should show. Did all the possible updates including installing the drivers again but still no luck My Video memory is 256 mb in total out of which 128mb is used by Virtual Machine. Graphics card is ATI Radeon HD2400 (256 Mb)
