Grab the latest Vista drivers. They should work but you may need to install in Vista compatibility mode if they will not install normally. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dwEEziL January 28, 2009 Share dwEEziL Member January 28, 2009 Just modify the way UAC acts. You can tell it not to fade out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZeroDamage January 28, 2009 Share ZeroDamage Member January 28, 2009 Yeah, he could do that Dweez but it looks like the screen is refreshing because of the driver. I could be wrong. As for doing the compatibility mode thing, just right click on the executable file and go to the compatibility tab. Even a Mac user should be able to handle this.

stutters January 28, 2009 Author Share stutters GC Alumni January 28, 2009 Thanks zd (and lol). Could you make a screencast showing the steps involved with this "right click." I usually click with my left hand. You're saying I need to click the mouse against the screen with my right hand? Wish me luck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dwEEziL January 28, 2009 Share dwEEziL Member January 28, 2009 As for doing the compatibility mode thing, just right click on the executable file , click on Properties, and go to the compatibility tab. Even a Mac user should be able to handle this. He left one little step out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
