| Guest | Windows XP gaming Software Hi folks, I am purchasing an Alienware laptop does anyone know if XP gaming software will run on Vista? I dont know if lets say Sierra will upgrade their software to Vista. I dont want to buy games that wont run on Vista. unless updates are ava. from the makers of a game for compatability. Lastly, anyone have problems connecting to the net with your laptop? I have Comcast my ISP. Thanks in advance -Chris |

| Guest | Re: Windows XP gaming Software So far all the games that I have reinstalled on the vista machine work without issue. Although some of them need to be run as administrator but other than that they all work fine. The only time I have problems connecting to the net is after a hibernation or sleep period when I have to reset the network by right clicking on the icon in my system tray and choose to diagnose and repair connection.
