Why has my color scheme been changed to Windows 7 Basic ?

• Your laptop might have switched from Mains Power to Battery Power.

• A program that you are presently running maybe incompatible with Aero and hence some visual element must have got automatically turned off. Windows will automatically change the theme back to Aero when such programs are closed.

• Your computer may be low on memory and may not have enough memory to run all your open programs and Aero themes.

• The hardware configuration or screen resolution of your computer may have changed. If the minimum hardware requirements are not met it may not run Aero themes.

The change is usually temperory and on rectifying or reversing the above, your computer will revert back to using the visual aero elements.
