I tried that earlier today, RG, but just like my kids, my 7600 GT ignored me and continued to function. Matridom, I didn't have such good luck creating or burning images with Nero either, but I have Alcohol 120%, and the newest version runs just fine under Vista. And I have to say Easy Media Creator 10 has been trouble free. This is the first version of the software I've owned since Easy CD 5, but I'm very happy. Never thought I'd dump Nero, but...

I just don't get very passionate about operating systems. They all have warts. My first computer back in 1980 ran C/PM 80 for an OS. For its day, it mostly worked OK. As do most operating systems from the Mac OSX to newer Linux distros to Vista.
You know, sunrise, it occurs to me that perhaps the cheapest solution to your burning software issue might just be to go buy another DVD burner. Most likely, you can get one for $40 bucks that would come bundled with Nero 7.x Essentials which may do everything you need. New drive, better performance, Vista-compatible software; sounds like a deal to me.

Everyone was clinging to 98SE.... Vista is nice, it's just new.... and it would help if the manufacturers would get their act together, after all, they only had 5 years notice that new drivers would be needed. Even the bigboys only produced Vista drivers AFTER vista was released to market.
No one is forcing you to buy Vista. I can order 10 copies of XP and build you 10 machines tomorrow, no problem. In a year's time, it's going to be a little more difficult because the new hardware may not come with XP drivers!

I have a 7900, Vista Ultimate and I play Battlefield 2142, Call of Duty 4, Crysis and it plays as fast as XP so if your having problems there must be something wrong with your install.
Heres a good one I heard. I don't like Vista cause everything is changed around and in different places and renamed. Its a piece of crap. Now there is a reason to hate Vista. I have had it on my machine for quite some time and it's not slowed down and a while back I went back to XP for the heck of it and XP seems very dull now. Just like going from XP to 2000.

Well my kids PC I built for him has a Nvidia 7900GT all though its been a few months neither Nvidia or the manufactures drivers did not work under Vista the screen became almost completely white so I reinserted the XP hardisk in his PC and his games run fine. I've noticed Nvida has come out with a newer driver and have yet to try it again thus I guess when I have some spare time I may give it a shot again. Thanks.

In XP Pro, the Mouse settings access in Control Panel has a Pointer Option called 'hide pointer when typing'.
Is it similar in Vista and if so and it is checked perhaps
un-checking it is worth a try.

You could always try the shortcut edit on one of the game shortcuts and see if it works - just change the target info/name:
"1-Right click your desktop shortcut for the (game).
2-Select 'Properties'. Make sure you are in the 'Shortcut' tab.
3-Select the 'Target' field. It should look something like this: "C:\Program Files\(game)\(game)\(game.exe)
4-Add -compatiblecursors 1 to the end of the target, so that it looks like this:
"C:\Program Files\(game)\(game.exe)" -compatiblecursors 1

CCT, using "(game name)\game.exe)-compatiblecursors 1" command will work with all games?
