Hi - I'm debating on whether to upgrade to Vista or not and whether to get a
new machine with Vista on it. My major concern is whether the programs and
games that I currently own will be compatibility with this new operating
system. I checked Wickipedia and looked under Vista compatibility and didn't
have any luck. Is there some easy way to tell before making a change which
of my games and programs will work if I decide to switch (instead of
contacting each manufacturer)? I am currently running XP home and several of
the games that I have were originally designed for earlier operating systems.
Is there a utility that can be downloaded to check this? Thanks!
 
You can try the Windows Vista Upgrade Advisor at www.windowsvista.com,
although most game publishers have not registered with the logo program that
drives this tool.
