online game not certified for compatibility with Vista

I've used Yahoo for many months to play the free online game named Cubis.
Recently I can't access the online game and I've noticed a disclaimer at the
top of the page that says Cubis is not fully certified for compatibility with
Windows Vista. I would appreciate any help anyone might give me.

About the only thing you can do it wait for Yahoo to make it fully
compatible with Vista. It's all in their court right now.

Re: online game not certified for compatibility with Vista

Have you tried manual compatibility? If it's web based, throw compatibility
to the wind - it will work based on the rendering engine your browser uses,
be it Firefox, IE, or whatnot - if it's downloadable, execute it with
compatibility settings. Right click on it (for or after installation) or a
link to it, goto Properties, Compatibility, Run this program in
compatibility mode for (usually Windows XP SP2 should suffice), and then
check Run as Administrator if the aforementioned doesn't work.
If it still will not run, then you'll have to wait until Yahoo amends the
issue.

Vista compatibility is touchy, certain software claims to be Vista
compatible and actually will not run, and vice versa - don't always trust
cheap labels.
