Default Re: winSPMBT and WinSPWW2 and VISTA

Aside from checking for driver upgrades for your video card and doing all the things you've already done we have no other suggestions at this time. You have "category two" issues ( sluggish ) which is somewhat better than "category three" ( scrambled colours )

However, in regards to your comment regarding windowed being "too small" do I assume correctly then that you are using the DL version ? If yes, the solution for your VISTA problems may be the CD version that has the higher resolutions which will give you a "full screen" window.

I never play full screen. I like to have the ability to play windowed which allows me access to other programs while playing the game.

The only other solution at this time is to hope Microsoft addresses some of these problems in it's service packs. As I said earlier, neither Andy or I have a "Vista" machine at this time but even if we ran out tomorrow and bought one there is no way to say for sure which of the three main results that have been reported will show up on the machines we have.
