I wanted DWM on my cheap nasty ATI card, believe me if you aren't sure about having DWM or whether it will work, this SHOULD fix that problem for you.

After ages of playing guys, try this...

Firstly click Start, Run...

Type Regedit and click OK or Press Enter on the keyboard

Now you are in Regedit go into HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE then under the Key Heading Software, go into Microsoft and create a new Key called DWM.

In DWM create a new DWORD 32-bit Value, Name it EnableMachineCheck and Exit Regedit.

CTRL + ALT + DEL OR right click the taskbar and start Taskmanager.

End the process uxss.exe which then returns giving DWM.

Never have i been able to use DWM on this card, i also get the new ALT + TAB feature and the glass taskbar.

Some of these ideas came from Serbmans LH 5048 DWM guide, thanks man
Goodluck My Card is an ATI 9250
