Vista of Course

Just downloaded and started playing this mod and found it to be quite a treat. Naturally I wanted to load and try it on my new laptop; which as you guessed has Vista as an OS.

After some tinkering and an install, uninstall and install again I finally found this to work:

Windows Defender - Disable it

Windows One Care - I took it off and use other Anti virus, antispyware, and firewall products

and finally I found that the only way which I could run the mod, was by having the ACFB disk installed. Trying to use DMCR Icon would not work (works fine on my desk top running XP of course).

I hope this helps and if anyone can add to it I would appreciate it.
