I know old game, but new to me. I just got a new Dell with Vista. I installed Empire Earth II just fine without any problems but when I tried to play the game it didn't start and then it wouldn't eject the CD. At one point in time I recieved an error message that said I was missing a dll...file or a mbll....file or something like that. But I can't seem to get that error message again. Anyone else have this problem? Anyone know how to fix this problem?

I have played other games and so far no problems.

As a general rule, any program or game that does not have a written-for-Vista sticker on it is anyone's guess over whether or not it will work at all in Vista. Try using compatibility mode and tweaking the settings. You will either find a combination that works or you won't. IF you don't, it just plain won't work in Vista.
