UI: 16 bit vs 32 bit color, Photoshop & "windows vista basic"

Hi all,

One important questions that I am not even sure how to ask, so I will describe.

I can get Photoshop cs2 to work if I put the display (lcd) in 16 bit color mode or change the mode to "windows vista basic" insetead of Aero. Photoshop and some other "legacy" programs do not display correctly but kind of work. The menu text is blurry, eg, the mouse will not paint correctly unless I change the mode. Then Photoshop works and looks fine. I am using a an Nvidia 7800 gs and the problem was with both Beta 2 and RC1. I was hoping... I am not sure if it is the card/driver Photoshop or Vista. I have looked for answers quite a bit. Any thoughts?
