Vista - No games work

I just installed GTR 2 for (dvd) and it won't start in regular mode, admin
mode, xp sp2 mode.

See attached.

I even did a complete o/s reload of Vista Ultimate fresh instead of upgrade
from MCE 2005 and the problem still persists.

I tried in XP SP2 compatibility mode, still gives the same error.

This even happened with Need for Speed Carbon demo too. Strange.

Your attached image doesn't seem to work either.

Yes it does work. I just clicked on it and it works fine

Not here either, I'm afraid. No attachment showing.

Hmm,

I'm getting this error when I try and click on it.

you running on ? And also, are you using the windows original graphics
drivers or did you download some from the manufacturer website?

I'm using the original that vista installed. I did not manually install any
drivers.

GTR2 works great for me. Not much help to you, but I can verify that in
works with Vista.
