Same question, same name, different game.....

I will be shifting operating cisterns in the near future i.e. to Vista, recieving new machine. Has anyone run ANW on Vista, will MG be doing something in this regard? I have noticed in the (larger) stores that all XP material has been removed from the shelves and got head shakes from the staff when enquired......

I think I'll put in a request for a red laptop, bound to make the game run faster, stronger able to leap tall buildings  ....

Thanks guys

Pretty weird but that is the only issue for me so far and I have been running it for 1 month now.

Status: offline 		Thanks Tony will bare that in mind, I generally stick with default settings as far as intallation is concerned.  Vista is coming due to a new purchase not necessarily by choice   ....I can be a bit of a ludite when it comes to OS's, time to get with it!

Thanks Dale and 1971mv for your input
