RE: what games do work with vista

This may not be much help, but I've been able to play FEAR, Supreme Commander
and any Steam based game (Halflife 2, Counterstrike Source etc). I also have
the embarrasment and horror to admit that the 'Little Britain' game works as
well, shockingly bad as it is, it does launch and work.

The Command and Conquer 3 demo works great with high settings (Geforce 7950GT on 100.65's). Also, Steam (CS:S etc.) runs, but has some problems; there is a long wait while joining games, while precaching resources etc., and more importantly the frame rate seems to be considerably worse than on XP.

Call of Duty, Company of Heroes, Diablo 2, Tomb Raider Legend, Tomb Raider Anniversary, Empire Earth.

These are just a few of the games I've been playing on Vista x64 without problems.
