OS: Vista 32Bit

I installed rome on it and all was well in campain map but when i go into battles all the formations stuff up when i move units. The officers go to were there supposed to go but the other units stay bak about 10 meters? Any help appreciated.

Vista has some type of XP compatibility mode, look into that.

PS. I'm surprised I'm still using Xp, considering how much windows sucks nowadays.

I’ve often heard of people having trouble with Windows vista. And I’ve also heard of people having trouble making mods and downloading them with Windows Vista. Is it true?

Yes, Vista tries to block modification of problems- just another thing Micro$oft added to try to prevent viruses when clearly, in a nutshell, Windows is a VIRUS

Back when we went from Windows 3.1 to Windows 95, and the outcry because of massive program incompatability, Bill Gates promised to assure backwards compatability for all future versions on windows.

Ha!

Ha!

HA!

Sorry Vista is a problem, try the XP compatability thing.

Windows sucks, Linux rules.

That’s too bad; I was going to get a new Windows Vista laptop. O well…

You are a wiseman, as soon as they allow windows games to be installed on a linux, guess who's switching?

An impressive list of games here that run on Linux, perhaps someone with some knowledge could give Total War series games a whack.

Sorry, I meant modification of Games. Of Course you don't want to modify problems let alone have them

Eh? Does that mean I shouldn’t try to download a mod?

I’m going to get a new Windows Vista laptop and I need some advice. I plan to download CB and all the patches that go with CB and I was wondering. Is there any way for me to download CB without it making my laptop messing up?
