Look at the official website. If they have not made a patch, then well, theres nothing you can do except take off Vista and put back XP

Try to visit the website for any patches or updates. If that doesnt work right click on the Shortcut on the desktop and go to properties. Then on the Compatibility tab there should be a box that says, "Run this program with" or something along those lines and you can chose to run the programs compatibility to Windows XP. I know it worked on a few of my other games....

Be very careful. When you do that it sends a signal off to Microsoft asking for verification. So Microsoft pings your computer and finds out what you are doing so they send out a signal that will burn out your motherboard. People that have Antivir Antivirus and/or some other virus programs and their firewall enabled and also have SpyBot S&D and Spyware Blaster are safe. Could also blow your CPU as was told to me by a computer repair guy. It especially attacks Intels. AMD has protection built in. That's why you don't see and AMD/Intel CPUs. Lol.
