    Does the nView for quadro have no "effect" opinion in win 8?

    I find that in the driver for GeForce, the nView has an "effect" opinion where I can set the taskbar transparent in win 7. I think technically Quadro should have same feature, but I cannot set the taskbar transparent. My gpu is Quadro K2000m. In the Personalization, there is no transparency slide for the window borders and taskbar.

    Is there any way I can set the taskbar and window borders transparent?

    Yup, you mean option, you should note that transparency (aka windows aero isn't available in windows 8). If that feature in windows 7 uses aero, it's normal that you do not have the option.

    No aero in win 8! Oh, is there any way get the aero feature? I only find the glass feature is left in the win 8 theme.

    Not without a third party app (if one exists) the native transparency is gone from Windows 8. There is a small measure of transparency on the taskbar, but even that is minimal.
