What kind of computer? speed? ram? video card? audio card? etc. Vista, new OS... Old Game, not developed on new OS... yeah, problems. Check for updates for your drivers, and update for the game and see if the game maker has any comments on Vista Support. Good luck. -A. |

I have the same two games: King Kong & AoM Titans. According to my laptop, it's the StarForce Protection thing that's having problems with King Kong. Trying to update now.. have tried putting in compatibility mode for XP SP2 but isn't working. Running as admin too, obviously. If anyone finds a way to make either game work please email thanks Game errors on vista.;248864 Wrote: when i try to play a game ( that runs on windows XP ) i can't run it on vista. when i start them up, some of them lagg, others crash and others kep falling out during gaming. any example games.
