San Andreas with Vista

I'm planning on buying a new PC in the future, but with a lot of reservation. I want to be able to play older games like GTA3, Vice City, and San Andreas, but since they are a bit aged I'm worried about their compatibility with Vista. I don't actually own SA yet, and tonight as I read reviews of the game on Amazon (out of boredom) ) I read several accounts of San Andreas not running with Vista. Some people said otherwise. Is there a compatibility issue, or is it just driver-related? I play a variety of games and have observed a lot of reports of driver problems with Vista.

Well I have a Dell Inspiron 531 with

Windows Vista and mine works just fine no problems

out of it at all. I have all kinds of games for it and they

have no problem working. I have just a standard driver

that plays CD/DVD

Vista could hardly be called an upgrade right now. Use XP SP3 for at least one more year, untill they sort out all the stability problems in the new OS.

 

That's the best advice one can give.

now Vista had updated the compatibility and now SA and VC works great on Vista without troubleshooting them.
