    For me too. Windows Update installed the drivers for my HD6870 on first boot and Aero is working

    I have tired Windows Update but there is nothing on there for the graphics, I did try finding it on the internet but haven't been able to;
    Mods - I was meant to post this is the Installation & Setup forum, move it if you want.

    That looks like Aero to me.

    Why is your desktop black?

    Sorry I should have made myself clearer, I mean't transparent, it won't let me change the background picture to anything else.
    I have tired windows update but it says my system is up-to-date

    It is set like that.

    You have to do a workround.

    It's nothing to do with your drivers.
