    When I restart my vista pc the taskbar and window theme change from windows aero to classic. I can still change it to aero but it always changes back to classic. I still have loads of space left in my memory. Why is this happening? Help.

    You need to uninstall the graphics drivers and then restart the computer.
    After restart install the updated graphics card driver back on the computer by downloading it from graphics card manufacturer's website.

    Also try SFC scan:
