Default How to Prevent the Windows "Screen color change..." message

Just about every time I run a mission or track I get the windows message about the color settings change. Sometime more than once. How can that be prevented???

Actually, the messages says something about the system is running slow and gives me the option to change to windows basic, or leave it as is.

Windows automatically turns off Aero mode if it gets low on memory.

However, i wouldn't just disable it altogether because a couple of things in the sim rely on displaying a windows pop-up window ( saving a track and using the "save as..." function in the controls setup screen) and that needs Aero to be on.

However, if you have already saved a copy of your controls and you don't use the track recorder feature, you can go ahead and safely disable it.

It was the same with the aircraft selection menu in multiplayer but they recently changed it in a patch and now it uses only in-game menus, so i suppose that these two functions will also get a similar treatment in a subsequent patch and we won't need to keep Aero on anymore.

How does one disable the notification????? Or, is there a way to disable Aero for just this game?
