I have the game "Superpower 2" and I have loaded it onto my computer without
any problems, but when I go to launch the game it tells me that I have to
have the compatability mode unchecked. I uncheck it and then launch the game
and then I get a new error message saying that the game will not work except
in 98/ME/2000/XP. I would like to play the game but I don't know how to get
windows vista to reconize it and launch it. Please help.

Mike

Hi Mike,

You might try having "Run this program as an administrator" checked
with and without XP SP2 Compatibility Mode to see if the game will run
with it.

I tried both ways and it still is sending me to the error. If the
compatability is checked it says it cannot run it so I uncheck it; if I
uncheck it, it will say that it can only be run with everything but windows
Vista I've tried it in both "run as an administrator" and with out.

Thanks for the try Brink.
