Whenever I open my WPF Solution Aero turns off, why? and how do I stop that from happening?

Question

Just opening a WPF solution (not a winforms or any other solution) will cause my OS (Win7) to turn off Aero, which gets kind of annoying

Is this a graphics card issue or something?

Answer 1

WPF uses a Direct3D context to render its components. Does your problem happen with other Direct3D apps as well? Say like games and the like.

edit: This is most definitely not programming related by the way, should be migrated to another StackExchange list.
