Thread: Vista help, yet again.

So I just installed Vista on my gaming machine, and I have a couple of issues I need assistance with.

I have installed my games, set them to run as an administrator, but when I click on them it will ask me if I want to continue, and when i say yes it says is is launching, then disappears. What now?

Also, is there some place I can go to see about getting all of the latest drivers easily?

That is a strange one... You disabled the UAC, correct?

Go to the vendor for whatever device you want drivers for and it is usually under something like downloads, support or drivers.

For your 8800 GT driver for 64 Bit Vista go to Nvidia's website here:

And here on Gigabyte's website are the latest drivers for your Mobo:

*note the motherboard drivers are not sorted into vista 64 only drivers so make sure you get the right one.

I did, but why don't you explain that to me to make sure I did it right. :8

Thanks yet again Soy.
