The results were pretty amazing to me.
I'm sure a lot of you got Windows Vista when it came out. But what about your games? Are they a throw-away because you think they will not work. The best thing you can do is try it first. Windows Vista has a built in mechanism to check for faults. If you try and run a game and it does not work as intended., Vista intercepts the problem, asks you if it ran correctly, if not then you push the option to rerun it in its preferred configuration. Most of the time this will do the trick. Well, I got older games like NHL 2001 to run with no compatability problems. Ran without crashing. Okay. Im going to say something everyone hates. STARFORCE. Thats a whole controversial thing I dont even want to go into for discussion .But if you do play games on your PC that are protected by this copy protection scheme, you have to update your protection drivers before the games will work on Vista. They released these protection driver updates on the starforce website. Oh , and a few games, that did not work with XP originally work without problem in Vista. Funny how it works on one thing but not the other. Oh well. Anyway, point is don't be afraid to try your game out. The worst that can happen is it will not work at all. Im completely satisfied by the way Vista handles program crashing. Its much improved over other operating systems.
