Well everytime I boot up I get this message that a StarForce driver is incompatible with the system and has been disabled. So I did a search and StarForce is a CD/DVD protection system used on games and apps. I looked through the list and recognized my Toca RaceDriver 2, I also have 3 but didn't see that in the list. Now my question is does anyone else have these games installed on their vista system? do they work? how do they run? I haven't tried myself and I'm hoping they work if 2 doesn't that's not a biggy but I hope that 3 does I love that one.

I dont have those games, but Starforce might have updated drivers - or if not yet, then soon. Got my fingers crossed for you. I know how I would hate being without my favorite games.

geez why didn't I think of that sheesh have to look up StarForce to see what is the situation with the update. Yeah being without the games would take away from my PC experience big time I mean what would people run when the boss isn't around.

One of my favorite games I am looking forward to is Vanguard:Saga of Heroes. It was being published by microsoft, and was going to be a big MS vista title, but now Microsoft dropped them... and they are their own publisher with SOE.

Anyways, I still want to see how the game plays under vista as they were testing it under vista before Microsoft dropped out.

[Vista_noob]

Should play good I hope. I've heard some horror stories but then again this is a beta, by RC1 they should hopefully work all the bugs out.
