Hi Lelia,
Smile. Read my previous post on this subject. As I said it is possible
to get all of Jim's games to run under Vista, but there is a few tricks
to doing it properly. I myself initially thought it was impossible until
I figured out that User Account Control management doesn't care if you
play games out of your home directory, but it cares a great deal if they
are installed to your programs directory and they were not written to
work specifically on Vista. Since Windows Vista uses security measures
similar to Mac OS and Linux I was pretty familiar with the concept of
user specific rights, but for most Windows users the concept of user
rights and user specific permissions is basically a new concept.

I hate to disagree, but no they don't!!! My husband has vista and he
absolutely LOVES!!!!! Jim's games and he can't play and boy does he
throw a fit each time he thinks of it so he plays the games on my
computer which is xp.
now before I get yelled at let me say that if there is a way we can make
the games run under vista let me know, but be very detailed.
