Will WitP work in Vista?

[Warspite3]

Sorry if this has been asked before but I can't check since the search function on the forum is not working. Does this game run in vista?

Mine does, but not with the latest patch.

No Problem with Vista Business 32bit.

Originally I had trouble when it installed into the default C:\programs\matrix games directory. Vista messes with stuff in the programs folder, so I installed it into C:\matrix Games and it works fine now. I have no idea what Vista does with programs in the Program directory, but now I install all my games into their own C:\ directory and bypass the default programs directory install recommendations.

If you install it into the deafult location, c:\matrix games\war in the pacific it will work fine. Vista applies special security to anything installed in the c:\program files folder so avoid it if you can. BTW the same caveat applies to HPS games too.

Some games (Not Matrix) like to go in the c:\program files folder. Examples include Civilization IV and International Cricket Captain. Actually they're the only other non-Matrix games I have installed.

Mine works fine. It just took forever to install.

Works fine for me under Vista 64.

Personally I am amazed when anything works in Vista
