cant get the "aero glass" theme to activate on a qualified comp...

so im setting up a bunch of games on a new gateway my brother is getting for christmas (its a sick rig, amd 6000+ socket am2, 2 gigs of ram, 8500gt, and vista home premium all for ~500$)

but i just finished installing the latest video drivers and then when i refreshed the windows experience index score, the aero glass desktop theme turned off.

it was running before i installed the new drivers, but it shutoff for some reason.

i know the 8500gt is more than qualified for running the spiffy aero glass theme, so why won't it turn on?
