| Guest | Re: XP games to Vista Actually... on quake 3 the sensitivity is not the only issue... probably on most of the games based on this graphic engine u will find that the gamma setting from the game, is not changing anything... |

| Guest | Re: XP games to Vista I have 2 games that still won't work after installing the Jan 5 nVidia driver to the RTM version of 32 bit Vista released November 18 NFS Carbon Collector's Edition DVD does NOT work arrggghhhhhh also Star Wars Battlefront II fails, both these games ask for the "correct" DVD and EA will not support Vista at all, don't even bother what really bugs me about Carbon is that every other NFS game I have works flawlessly . . . |

| Guest | Re: XP games to Vista Battlefront II has worked for me just fine but would love to get the regular battlefront working......One that really bugs me is actually one of my favorites of all time is Red Alert 2....I can load it and get it all ready to go but tells me that there is a fatal error when it goes to load and then NOTHING....What the hell was going through these guys minds when they released something with no backwards compatibility?!!!!!!
