    I'm not sure, but wasn't there an issue with running FH on Vista?
    A kind of "it just doesn't work on Vista" issue?

    My memory might be playing tricks on me here though

    cc, I thought so, too. If memory serves, didn't looseleaf try to make it work under Vista?

    Rgr that.

    I didn't "try" much but it did start nicely with Saitek X52 joy.

    The first problem was that NONE of the keyboard commands worked at all. If memory serves I couldn't get the joy to be acknowledged by the game either.

    In short, it was a total loss. I'm not a computer software person at all, so this is by no means a definitive statement.
    Maybe there is an expert out there who would know how to get it WBFH to work on Vista platform.
    Rudeboy had the best idea; get an older computer and use it to play the game.
    I haven't done that either. I blew $100 on the joy and then $2k on a laptop and donate my desktop Win2Kpro to the school.
    Just too lazy to go find a old beater computer.

    If anyone finds a way to play on Vista, please let us know!
