Vista - BF1942-run as admin

Hi,

Just an FYI
Got around to testing Vista with games.
Have BF1942 Complete Collection.
Runs great-just make sure you go to properties>Compatibility tab>run as
admin,
or you'll get a .exe fail every time.
ohh
also get the version patch from EA
(if you run regular-it'll crash; and Windows Problem Reporting and
Solutions has a link to the patch-lol)

:-)

You are lucky. I can run it but the menus look funky and I don't get any
aiming cross hairs.

I have an NVIDIA card, so I think I just have to wait for newer drivers.
So, I have to use my XP HD to run that still.
