RE: older games

You are probably like me in this situation and it is not just older games but
cheap games or non RPG big money maker games.. i have read MS went to alot of
trouble to make vista compatable with WOW, AC, Halo etc but those of us who
have older or cheaper games ie. the yahoo, msn, oberon download games, nancy
drew games, older sim games are just out of luck unless the manufacturer of
the game prepares a fix in which we will prob have to buy an entirely new
game to play. in my search for fixes, causes and such i also read that vista
won't even play some of the games on the MS zone game site.. tells you how
important some pple are in comparison to the big gamer.. p.s. nothing
personal to the big gamer i used to be one. . in fact played ac, wow, linage
and more but can not anymore due to health issues so the enjoyment i get is
now limited to these lesser games and i am very angry MS overlooked us in
their quest for a great gaming OS.. makes me wish i had not bought my new
computer.
