Vista compatibility?

Post by Warrior »

So, the new Microsoft Vista OS is supposed to release in January. Do we have any reports on whether SPWaW will be OK with it?
Retreat is NOT an option.

I have been using Vista for the last 5 weeks(RC 2.) SPWAW does work with Vista, but be sure to save your games frequently. Every now and then the game will crash-more often than under XP.

I installed Vista on a second hard drive and I am very happy with the new OS. Give it a try.

I have never crashed SPWAW in Windows, clear back to ver 3.1..How does Vista handle DOS programs??
