| | Hey all, im having a problem with my fave game. Its an old one, Close Combat 5 from 2000. I can get the game to work in single player, no problem, but VISTA has for some reasons erased all the buttons in the multiplayer section so I can host or join via UDP, TCP. Why does Vista remove these buttons? Is there a security option to change so they are brought back? I dont use the firewall, but I see it has some options anyway, and the game has access like other games i do (that do work) Is there a way to allow connection via IP in vista, a way to fix my problem? THANKS FOR ANY RESPONSE! redscorpion |

| | I now manage to enter gamespy arcade but the game wont launch from there, says pathway is wrong, altho it isnt. I suppose vista is stopping the program from launching the game, is there a way to fix that? Where do I change the settings and allow a program like gamespy to start up games? thanks |

| Try running the program as an administrator and in Windows XP compatibility mode. Simply right click the shortcut and check the two functions mentioned above under the compatibility tab.

| That didn't work. Why in the world would vista remove the buttons! I am so disgusted with Windows now. The "Compatibility" options do jack when trying to play my old games.
