willtrib, any game that wont run on vista, you can right-click the installer icon, goto properties, then enable it to run in compatibility mode under windows XP, you'll be straight. trust me. i had to do that for 'prey'.
peace

Also, you'll be able or should be able to do that during installation, since you are installing from CD. if it won't let you, copy the contents of the CD to your HDD, then go here for a no CD patch/ fixed image.

nope, you wont lose anything at all dude. actually, it'll look quite nice on vista with direct x 10. think of it as playing an xbox game on the 360. know what i mean?
