The other thing to do in Vista, is to not let SH4 install to the default directory when first loading in the gamefiles.

Go to your C drive if you only have one, and create a new folder and call it games or whatever you want, then create create a folder in there for SH4. (Do this so you can put other games in this folder too.)

When you install the SH4, navigate it to that SH4 folder, and install the gamefiles there.

If you have a second hard drive, it is best to put your games on that drive. That's what I did, so that my SH4 Directory reads like this, D:\Games\SH4\. That is where my screenshots default to when I take one.

That'a just one of the quirks to get used to with Vista. It takes time, to set it up, but you can get it to look and pretty much so mimic XP. I just wish Win7 was ready when I built this rig, as Vista 64 was the best that was available. I really anted XP 64, but they were out of stock, and didn't have anymore comin' in to the store.
