Someone who has Vista can help you, but you have to run it in XP Compatibility Mode.

You'll have to be specific on what you have tried and what you have not. Otherwise, we can't really help you solve your problem.

I have a clan member who also upgraded to Vista and cannot get Renegade to work. We have tried various compatibility modes but to no avail cannot get it to work.

A sticky somewhere on the forum with some FAQs and answers would be good to get us through this period because there is only going to be more people with problems as they upgrade.

<LogiForce> Downgrade to XP ? :S
<LogiForce> 2k is older then XP. It is called upgrading.
<ToxicFrog> LogiForce: going from "bad" to "worse" is not an upgrade even if "worse" was released after "bad".

I am using vista business edition and renegade install without a problem, just use right click, run in admin mode...

This was without needing to turn UAC off
