Intel GMA 950 graphics supports Aero (Intel's official site says so). Inspiron e1405 should be able to run this feature, if you have enough system memory.
The graphics shared memory must be set to at least 128MB in BIOS, since Aero requires at least 128MB.
The Premium Vistas require at least 1GB of main memory. Although you have 1GB RAM, you must share it with integrated graphics, so you will maybe have to upgrade main memory.
However, if you are able to run the tool from Microsoft on this laptop, it will tell you if the notebook runs Aero for sure.

You can use this program to see if you are able to run Vista. I would say yes, but i'm not 100% sure on the Intel Graphics. Your processor is definitely capable.

1st, I need to know how old the machine is. Most of the PCs that are on the market now are Vista ready. The older PCs may not be compatible with Vista.

that's going to in all danger be waiting to run it, yet i'm guessing it could be slower than abode windows xp. in case your computer is slow in any respect appropriate now, then i could relatively not installation it. even although, if it runs merely fantastic, you would be able to desire to objective it, yet be arranged to place in abode windows xp returned merely in case it does not paintings. in accordance to the stated standards, you prefer a million GB of ram, and you'd be able to discover that considering you do not have particularly this plenty, the overall performance heavily isn't as sturdy. even although, you will desire to be waiting to place in it on your computer considering you in all danger have a minimum of the minimum standards.
