    Hi skeptic,
    assuming you have installed the latest graphics driver then you'll need to right click on the desktop and choose 'Personalize'.

    Check the screen shot above and you will see where I've arrowed the 'Theme' section. It's here where you can change the theme to an aero one and regain the transparent borders.
    Any issues please post back.

    Further to Kemicals answer, when you've chosen your Aero theme, click on the "Window Color" option at the bottom of the window. Make sure "Enable transparency" is ticked on the newly opened window.
