IF01170  Run Pre-Vista Programs In Compatibility Mode.

Use Vista's Compatibility Mode to run apps that aren't quite Vista ready. Here's how:

1.    Right click the executable and click the Properties option.

2.    Select the Compatibility tab.

3.    Select the Run This Program in Compatibility Mode option.

4.    From the drop-down list, choose the operating system you ran before upgrading to Vista.

5.    If necessary, select the option to run the program as an Administrator.

6.    Click OK.

I haven't run into any must-have apps that aren't working in Vista, so I can't vouch for this, but it is supposed to be how it works.

Let me know if you need anything else.
