if you still got a problem runnin it from Vista, try to look on this post how to manually set up CD key (but, that thing with privileges and running app. as admin. work for me) or if you can wait till 19 o'clock (GMT+1) I'll post an update from my home - exactly as should be...ok?

*Update

Come home, done the screen shoot, make sure U set it up as same as it here and it will work

im not sure if you read correctly, but i can't even get it to validate... unless theres some secret that i don't know

Hey now Windows Vista Service Pack 1 is coming in a week and a half so we'll see how Vista will be by then. Right now I'm running Vista Home Premium, but I'm getting my PC repaired using my warranty, so I'll probably install Vista Ultimate 64 when I get it back to enjoy all the goodies SP1 has to offer.
