Not working on Vista

Hello all,

I tried installing the game on my Vista Home Premium laptop (Acer Aspire 9423). It lags horribly and makes it virtually impossible to play the game.
I saw the sticky, but those are instructions for XP, and since I don't have the nVidia control panel here, I have no idea how to fix it.

The GPU in this laptop is a GeForce Go 7300 with 128MB memory.

Any suggestions on how to fix it?

Thanks for any help,

Unfortunately, if I remember right, Bethesda made a statement that Legacy would not support Vista, as Legacy's multiplayer uses Gamespy, which is currently incompatible with Vista.

Honesly, I wouldn't bother with any GPU that doesn't have a minimum of 256MB anyway.

'Ello,

I think it oculd be your hardware, I run this game on Windows Vista and it's sort of fine I just get a bit of static in the sound every so often but that's it. It's Windows Vista Home Premium I am runnin, I've not tried multiplayer yet though.

Well, somehow my (legal)copy of Legacy works fine with vista. Sure it had a few problems at first but over the last few months it has somehow gotten more playable(only reasonable explanation is the Windows Updates).

EDIT:This is from another thread I posted in.

WinnerZero has no problems with Vista, but I would try new graphic card drivers! (It helped with many bugs I and some other people had like black registries, ...)

Well, installing patch 1.2 pretty much solved it

And I got rid of Vista by now anyway.
