Windows 7 Professional reports that driver does not support Aero. CPU is i3-6100 3M. Standard VGA graphics card is reported in device manager as working properly. Latest Intel Graphics Driver Version: 15.40.5.1.64.4274 for Skylake and Windows 7 (as per readme.txt) downloaded at Gigabyte site does not resolve. Driver option at install was checked for Aero to be enabled. GIGABYTE GA-Z170-HD3 is the board. Are there any drivers that should be installed before the Intel graphics driver? The only driver installed so far has been for Internet access.
