Which game might that be?



Here's my current list:

Zoo Tycoon 2*
Half-Life 2*
Civilization 4*
Battlefield 2
Rise of Legends
Quake III Arena***
Unreal Tournament 2003***
Oblivion
Morrowind
Black and White 2
Warcraft 3**
World of Warcraft
Halo
Ghost Recon Advanced Warfigher
Sim City 4*
Guild Wars
Call of Duty 2
FEAR
Command & Conquer Generals
Command & Conquer Renegade
StarCraft
Final Fantasy XI
EverQuest 2
Diablo II
Star Wars Galaxies
FIFA 2006*
Call of Duty
Grand Theft Auto San Andreas
DOOM 3

*Problems, on my setup I had to run them into a window first to prevent them
from crashing, I'm assuming a video driver bug not letting them pick up
resolution details. Others have mentioned lowering the desktop resolution
to the same as their default start-up resolution resolves it too.

**Works fine with retail version, but latest patch breaks sound.

***Mouse acceleration seems to be turned on.

As to what the list says , im having problems running world of warcraft on vista , this is a isolated issue so far to which when i log on to the game it flickers a bit then screen turns black . Now i never had problems before in running wow in Xp but now that im using vista it seems i cant even get a simple game to work ..Yes i have updated all my drivers . im running wow on a toshiba satellite laptop with my Intel mobile 945g express video card . i meet and exceed requirements for running world of warcraft and vista . I've read up on all problems reguarding vista and took a chance .
