It could be a program you have running in the background that is not letting it run. Once I had Battlefield open and it would not load my Yahoo mail. So try to close anything that is not needed.
edit: posted something useless, missed a detail in the video. I'm pretty clueless because the process is still responding. You could try making it not run in compatibility mode or switch around with other compatibility modes. I've tried an am not able to recreate the error.

check if you have dwm.exe running in the background (use task manager's process list).
if so, right click dwm.exe, "end process tree". if it is still there, do the above step until it is no longer running. tell us if it works. |

If you watched the video, he IS on basic. If you end dwm.exe, the only thing that'll happen, is that you'll go back to aero if it's supported.

Of course Vista has .NET framework. Without it, many programs won't run.
