I have successfully upgraded my Operating System to Vista Home Premium from XP Home SP2 and upgraded my Graphic Adapter from the intergrated motherboard graphic card (that had no dedicated video memory) to a Vista Ready Graphic Card (with 256MB of DDR2 dedicated memory supporting Microsoft® DirectX® 9.0). Post graphic card upgrade, my Windows Vista Experience Index is now rated at a 3.9 (previously it was rated as 1.0) and I now enjoy/experience the Full Vista Aero Translucency Interface Effect with Windows Taskbar Thumbnails, Windows Flip and Windows Flip 3D features, etc. However...I can not customize/personalize my Windows Vista Tooltips (from the default small black print displayed on an off-white background). In Windows XP I could customize the font and background color of the tooltip. When I attempt this personalization in Vista using the following PC path (Control Panel/Appearance and Personalization/Customize Colors/'Open Classic Appearance Properties link'/'Advanced' command/Item/ToolTip/...it has no effect on the appearance of the Taskbar ToolTips in Vista when I change the font and change the background color of the ToolTip. Does anyone know how to Customize/Personalize a ToolTip using Windows Vista Home Premium? If so...please share your expertise!!
