Running with Windows 98/ME compatablity and disabling Visual Themes and Disabling Desktop Composition, the program seems to run fine.
No major issues. Hard to tell if there is a performance hit because this is a totally rebuilt system for me.

Installed fine, without Vista yelling at me, but the game will still not run. No matter what combination of compatibility options I use. It will start to load, then crash out. When the box comes up that gives me the option to check online for a solution, that does not work either
Dell Inspiron 1300, 1 gig ram + 1 gig ready boost (Cruzer 2 gig, 1 gig set aside for ready boost), Vista x86

This game works great under vista (i have a good graphics card so i don't see the difference but there is a difference).
In order to make the game work, you have to rename the MOVIES folder in the game folder, it wont have those movies but it'll work swell.

Performance doesn't seem to be as good as on XP (32 bit) but the game does seem more stable on my setup.
