Default Vista problems

Ok, I've got SEV installed on the same computer that I used to play it with no problems. Now, I can't get it to play. AFter I boot it up, I get the menu. I press play the game, and then the screen goes white and starts playing the music. It seems stuck. How can I get it to play on my Vista machine?

You'll have to reconfigure your firewall as it's blocking the program from running correctly.

Have you tried windowed mode? I even made an AutoHotKey script which makes windowed mode look like fullscreen...

Windowed mode will also display an error message that may be helpful.
