I was wondering if we could start to compile a list of Games that work on
Windows Vista... As this would make it easier for many of us..

Add Fifa 2006. Works like a charm, but desktop resolution has to be changed
to 1024*768 before the game is run.

GTA San Andreas works quite well, not perfect, some gfx glitches with
vertical lines, but runs without slowdowns on my system.

I have EQ2 installed and running on Vista, but when zoning, or death occures,
I get kicked to the desktop and the client closes.

NFS MOST WATED: Black Edition (DVD) works just fine for me! (Vista 32-bit)

Have you tried using Taskman and ending any unecessary processes? Certainly
helped me out!
Ending any unecessary resource hogging apps may improve the situation!

I think Vista is running a lot of extra processes because:

1) I'ts BETA!

2) Because it's BETA, it needs these extra processes to help with program
and application compatibillity testing.

3) Vista-BETA would obviously have all the extra 'bells + whistles' turned
on, to see how these work/run of course.

4) Any new features not yet seen in any other version of Windows, would also
be on for various reasons/purposes.

Hope this helps, it certainly did for me and I thought I had a relatively
capable system for running hardware/cpu/graphics - intensive games!

Mobo: ASUS P5GDC-Deluxe (LGA775, Intel 915P+ICH6R, CPU Lock Free, FSB-800
Overclocked)
CPU: 3.0GHz Intel P4 630 (O/C'd to 3.6GHZ - No conflict with Vista either!)
System RAM: Dual Channel - 1GB DDR2 PC4200(533MHz) Generic
Video: Expert-Vision GeForce 6600LE (512meg)
Sound: Onboard CMI 9880 (Vista has issues with running onboard CMI chips but
I have it running nonetheless!)

Cheers,

Lee-roy (Australia)

Add:

NEED FOR SPEED MOST WANTED: Black Edition (DVD)

SIN EPISODES: Emergence

F.E.A.R. (Needed taskman to end a lot of unecessary processes in order to
run!)

Sorry for repeating "F.E.A.R." but I thought the extra little piece of info
might help others out!

No patches were used in any of the games - straight out of box!
All games were played in the 32-bit ver of Vista.

Cheers,

Lee-roy (Australia)



P.S. My PC-Setup:

Mobo: ASUS P5GDC-Deluxe (LGA775, Intel 915P+ICH6R, CPU Lock Free, FSB-800

CPU: 3.0GHz Intel P4 630 (O/C'd to 3.6GHz - No conflict with Vista either!)
