Is there any way to make it work ? Is there any adapter for joystick that use standard gameport to USB ? Since i paid 200.00$ for that wheel and never broke.. i would expect from Microsoft that sold that wheel make it work in Vista..

I was just reading posts on putting pinball on vista, and I realized I don't have pinball on my comp anymore for some reason. I am still have windows xp, so I just went to add/remove windows components and it doesn't show on the list even under games. Anyone have any idea where it went and how to get it back?

Installed and plays beautifully on a clean load of RC1 - Did not have to even adjust it to run in compat mode or set it to disable DWM Works flawless - Much Much Much better than EA Sport Nascar SimRacing - which is so trying to be this game and even though it may look prettier - It does not work on Vista at all - Thanks EA.... Papyrus is no more, but still after 3 years has a better...

I installed oryginal drivers, with Program Compatibility Wizard, but then some functions aero, like switch between windows and windows preview(on taskbar) wasn't working.

Im seeing general instability in DirectX durring gameplay of Anarchy Online. Throughout gameplay the text in the chat window will have small segments blinking in and out... and at 32 meg color depths even while playing in windowed mode, pressing the Windows key instantly crashes the client. I installed DirectX 9.0c as well, and still see the text corruption flickering in and out.. Has...

Alright, I just recently installed Windows Vista Ultimate RC 1, and for the most part, 99% of programs that I have been installing have worked great so far. The only 2 things that haven't worked so far is: 1. Messenger Mate for AIM 2. Driver installation for my HP 5150 printer :( I tried playing FAR CRY, and it loads up fine but once it tries to load a level, i just get a black screen and it...

I know this game has been gone a long time, it disappeared after Windows 3.0 but I always thought it was a fun game. It would have been great to see an updated version of it in Vista.

Hi Guys, I may be being a bit thick asking this, but i've installed steam, I'm running Vista RC1, and all I get come up when I try to play cs or hl2 is 'game currently unavailabe, please try again later'??? My system is:- 2Gb Memory, 3Ghz Intel p4 ht, 512MB Nvidia 6800Ultra, Hardware's capable of running no problem. Am I missing something obvious? I've seen loads of posts with no problems

Yes - exactly the same. Ran demo flight then just comes up with fatal error on starting each time. MS Solutions Centre's response is that it will be fixed in Release Candidate 1 - and I sincerely hope so. "Jane C" wrote: Anyone else having problems with the Flight Sim x demo?

I share Ratas' problem. Lucky you if you have it working, but it's obviously a problem when multiple people have the same issue. "digitalexplr" wrote: I've been running Vista & BF1942 on a Sempron 2400, 2 gigs RAM and 6600LE vid card. Has worked fine. "Paul Smith" wrote:

When I run a fullscreen game in Vista, the bottom quarter of the screen is corrupt or solid white. This happens with both Direct3D and OpenGL games. See this link for an example: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v739/KR74/Q3Vista.png I have an ATI Radeon X1600 and the current ATI beta drivers for Vista.

Let me tell you a simple fact about antialiasing... 72/96 dpi displays are the cause of antialiasing. There are three options: - Ignore it - Supersampling/Multisampling

Has anyone had problems starting the Installer for Unreal Tournament 2004 Editors Choice? Whether running it with normal Vista settings or WindowsXP/SP2 compatability, it just refuses to start at all. No sign of it even trying either. When browsing the DVD, I was able to get the Mod installer running, but as for the base game, nada =(.

I just upgraded from Vista Beta to RC1 but the games included with Vista which worked fine in the previous version are now sooo slow it's painful. What did they do to them?

Forget it for now I'll wait for about 6 months after the final verson. Way too many problems. And I have a $2500 computer

Are you running any kind of system monitoring software or hardware like ASUS Probe? These periodically poll the system, and I have seen delays in games because of it.

I wonder if anyone here could tell me if you tested games such as F.E.A.R., Doom3, Half Life 2, HALO on BOTH the 32 Bit and the 64 bit version of Vista? Do they play on both? Any downside to either? Thanks
