Does anyone know why some games that used to run on Win XP simply don't run on Vista Home Basic? Some examples include BigFish games such as Mystery Case Files and Sierra's Homeworld 2.

If a games Rating is higher than your computers Performance Rating can you still play the game or will it not work on your computer. ( For example: I want to play Battlefield 2 and its rating is...lets say a 4 but my computers Performance Rating is only a 3...can I still play this game? )

Games over the internet by Shouldntbreed
I've seen six or seven of these posts and no working replies. No, I -don't- have a router, yes I told the windows firewall to allow my game through, yes I manually told the firewall to open that port, and NO, it's still not working/blocking the port. Can anyone tell me why Vista is randomly deciding to block ports and/or program access to the internet? I'm halfway tempted to freaking format...

Backgammon by NYGreco
Why would Vista (ultimate) not have all the internet games (such as my favorite, backgammon) available? And yes, I know I can go to Zone.com, but it's not the same. At the Zone you waste more time waiting than playing. The one available with XP was simply the best in convenience and simplicity. Why would MS screw up so bad?
