Trust me Webster, I was behind the 8 ball with Vista. Same issues as Bruce.

Skwasjer was huge help in getting it straight for me. The biggest thing was making a folder for your games.

After that, it acts and runs like XP. I never run it as administrator or any of that. Never ran it as administrator for patches etc. Double click and off I go
No thread yet for Vista installation....maybe we will use this to kick it off.
