    Windows Vista RTM Software Compatibility List

    From IeXwiki

    (Redirected from Windows Vista Software Compatibility List)
    This entry shall enable all ieXwiki members to create a list of software, that will work with Vista RTM (Build 6000), or won't work, so that it's possible to check that even before installation. Feel free to contribute. (Originally started by Jonathan Yaniv (jyaniv) ).
    For our previous results, check out the Beta 1 listing or the Build 5219 listing or the Build 5270 listing or the Build 5308 listing or the Build 5342 listing or the Build 5365 listing or the Build 5381 listing or the Beta 2 (Build 5384) listing or the Build 5456 listing or the Build 5472 listing or the Build 5536 listing or the RC1 (Build 5600) listing or the Build 5728 listing or the RC2 (Build 5744) listing.
    However, for our hardware compatibility results, please see this alternative listing.
    You can also check out Tom's Hardware Forums for a similar listing of compatible hardware & software.
    Microsoft has now published a list of programs compatible with Windows Vista in their knowledge base, KB933305: Applications that have earned the "Certified for Windows Vista" logo or the "Works with Windows Vista" logo.
    NOTES:
    • Entries are in alphabetical order.
    • Please mention the version/build number of the software and if it applies to the 32-bit and/or the 64-bit beta OS (e.g. "Software vX.XX.XXXX (32- and 64-bit)")!
    • On 32-bit Vista RTM, 16-bit or 32-bit Windows programs which uses 16-bit drivers or VxDs will not work anyway as on any NT systems. 16-bit fullscreen DOS programs do not work.
    • Announcement: For advanced users, Microsoft has released a new version of Virtual PC, called Virtual PC 2007. It allows users to run previous versions of the Windows OS on top of Windows Vista so you may use older applications. This program still has limits, however. Read more: [1] and [2]. Virtual PC 2007 is a free download available from Microsoft.

    Academic

    • Maple 9 - Java 1.6 must be installed. Successfully installed using Windows 2000 compatibility mode. When selecting network install and choosing a location for user preferences try typing in the network path manually. Still need to test full functionally of software but so far it starts up. License must have TS_OK flag, all 9.5 and newer 9.0 licenses will have this.
    • Maple 10 - Java 1.6 must be installed. Install must be in 2000 compatability mode. License must have TS_OK flag. Java maple sets theme to windows basic, classic maple works fine with aero.
    • Cadence Design Suite - Application functions but has trouble accessing files directories due to Vista's file protections.

    • Audition v2.0 (does not support Aero. Vista will drop to Basic Color Scheme when Audition 2 is running)
    • Total Recorder Works with two small problems: 1. Help doesn't work, and 2. Program doesn't work with other programs that can not run without using DirectSound. See link.
    • Musicmatch - V10 - Works fine on Vista Business and Vista Ultimate. One setup was a fresh OS install with MM installed afterward. MM had to be re-installed using "recommmended settings", but after that it worked. The other install was an OS upgrade from XP Pro and MM was already on the system. MM fails trying to check for new versions online, but otherwise it works fine.
    • Winamp v2.03 (in x32: config screens don't display correctly if Font Size DPI is set higher than the default setting)

    • Motorola Bluetooth USB PC Adapter PC850 (Widcomm stack) -- Installs with many prompts, dongle works, devices connect...but upon reboot system hangs permanently after login or manifests various states of BSOD.
    • Toshiba Bluetooth Stack -- lots of security prompts during installation. Couldn't get Bluetooth Stereo (A2DP) and ActiveSync over Bluetooth working.
    [edit]
    CD/DVD Authoring

    • Ahead Nero 6.6.1.4 (32-bit) (installs if you ignore Vista warnings but also causes Explorer crashes when viewing directories that have video files in them, as well as file copy/move operations - the Explorer crashes (COM Surrogate failures) can be corrected by making modifications to Nero specific merit values using DirectShow Filter Manager 0.5 (freeware) but the file copy/move operations cannot - surprisingly, a better solution is to install Nero inside a Windows XP virtual machine (ie. using VMWare Server) and let Nero burn discs from within the VM using the burner residing outside the VM in Vista - suprisingly, this works perfectly)
    • UltraCopy 9.5 Premium Edition -- During the files are saving to system, an error message "FM20.dll, DllRegistryServer unsuccessfull, code 0x8002801C, accessing OLE registry" is received. Click "Ignore". The setup finishes and program works perfectly.
    [edit]

    Firewalls / IDS's

    • COMODO Firewall Pro 2.4.5.111 BETA (32-bit) -- Seems to work fine despite warnings from Vista to the contrary during installation. Setup EXE file must be run in Windows XP compatibility mode.

    • Maple Story (32-bit) - GameGuard Error 360: Right-click and choose Run As Administrator.
    • Microsoft Best of Entertainment Pack (32-bit) - installation will crash, but all files do install and work properly without any further problems
    • Microsoft Motorcross Madness 2 - on x86, download d3drm.dll and put in the install folder. Then it runs fine.
    • Max Payne v1.00 (This game sometimes cannot work/start the first level/open main menu under Windows XP and Vista. When Max Payne is loaded, the game crashes with an program error before main menu/before starting first level. But, this problem can be solved. The intro movie file of Max Payne " intro.mpg " is broken. Rename a .mpg file as " intro ", then copy it and overwrite with normal " intro.mpg ".
    • Myst I : The game runs, there are sound but you have only a black screen (on Windows XP either). You need to download and install Quick Time 6.5.2 (note : Quick Time 7 or Quick Time Alternative do not work)

    • Riven (the sequel to Myst) (32-bit). Install the game, then copy this file (DLL from QuickTime 2) in the same directory. Afterwards, apply this unofficial patch.
    • Syberia I & II DVD-ROM (edition collector) (32-bit). There are problems with starforce protection : Install the game as an administrator and contact support@starforce.com to get a key and unlock the protection (note : this is 100% legal)
    • Need for Speed: Carbon (With 98/ME Compatibility mode, must change compatibility for 2 files, NFSC.exe and Need for Speed Carbon_code.exe. Still crashes now and then for some people, EA yet to release a working patch for Vista, otherwise you can delete the MOVIES folder to run it without problems & without movies :D)
    • Pompei (32-bit) : the setup crashes. Install the game manually (copy all the file from the two CD to the computer) and run the game. The save wont't work, except the automatic save.
    • SimCity 4 w/ expansion pack - some users reported this not working at all. (Note: A graphics card with pixel shader 2.0 and 64MB or higher memory may be necessary for this to function.)
    • SouthPark Super Mario v2.1 (32-bit) - You need to disable the 'shift' sticky-key
    • SpaceCowboy v0.3.3.44 (32-bit) - you need to run as admin
    • The moment of silence : I found an unofficial patch here (not tested)
    • Trackmania Nations (32-bit) - Tested with Vista Ultimate 32-bit with GeForce 8800 GTS - Source
      • Install TrackMania Nations
      • Find TrackMania Nations ESWC.exe in the TrackMania Nations folder in the Program Files folder
      • Right-click TrackMania Nations ESWC.exe (not the launcher) and run as an Administrator. This will force the Star-Force drivers to install, even though they are not compatible. It will result in an error -- this is okay. You may have to end the process manually.
      • Run the Star-Force driver update tool for Vista Beta testers.
      • Restart your computer
      • Play the game using TrackMania Nations ESWC.exe. Use the launcher to change settings.
    • Ufo Aftershock, patch 1.2 (64-bit) - I had probs but fixed them as follows: installed the latest Forceware drivers and a no-dvd patch (the no-dvd in hopes it will fix the "driver signing" issue).
    • WarRock - Run with XP/SP2 Compatibility Mode and administrator privilege level. (32-bit)
    [edit]

    • Autodesk 3D Studio Max v9.0 (64 Bit) - Run with OpenGL as DirectX has issues rendering in viewports, Must be run as administrator and DDS issue :dxdds.bmi failed to initialize. Error code 998 (To fix this set the viewport display method to 'SOFTWARE')
    • Corel X3 -- Can be installed as anyone, must be activated (first run) as administrator
    • Jasc Paint Shop Pro 6.02 -- Installs without issue; however, upon starting, an error message stating that Windows "could not write to the registry" appears twice, and then the program runs normally.
    • Jasc Paint Shop Pro 9 -- Installs without issue; however, upon starting, an error messaging stating "The color scheme has been changed" and Windows has to temporarily change the color scheme to Vista Basic. PSP runs normally, and the color scheme changes back once you exit the program.

    Network, web servers, etc

    [edit]
    Other

    • Foxit PDF Reader v2.0 (32/64 bit) - printing under 64-bit causes immediate crash & You need to run as admin to run updates. Associate Foxit with PDF files option under Help doesn't make the association.
    • MediaMan XL (32-bit) : go to the install directory and assign "run as admin" for the two .exe files. (MediManXL.exe & SreamloadService.exe)

    Viewers

    • ACD See 9 - program launches correctly, but can't recognize new user document folders structure.
    Path "C:\Users\Username\Pictures" is not recognized and nothing is shown. On the other hands, folder "C:\Documents and Settings" is still listed in folders view although is not present in Vista anymore. Pictures in another folders are shown correctly, so seems there is some hard link for user folder that can't be addressed properly.

    Heavy Problems, Currently Incompatible

    NOTE: If a product you use is listed below, check with the software vendor for a newer version. In many cases, vendors will provide free update patches or low-cost upgrade options to a newer version. You may also want to look in the Works section above as a newer, working version may already be available. If you have any 16-bit DOS or 16-bit Windows applications, they will probably never work.
    [edit]

    [edit]

    • Philips Sound Agent 2 - Can't install, driver of device isn't compatible.

    • RealVNC 4.2.8 Enterprise Edition (doesn't accept connections - some say you can circumvent these problems by not installing it as a service, then configuring it as admin and running user-mode as admin, which unfortunately means no service versions - also, you have to make exceptions for vnc in the firewall and windows defender - that said, results are sporadic at best)
    [edit]

An unexcepted error was encountered while initializing SM PRO." appears. Iolo's website said once Windows Vista is released to the public then the products will update to Vista compatible products.

    • M-Audio FastTrack - M-Audio has been keeping pace with changes to the Windows Operating System since the release of Windows 95 nearly 12 years ago. We are very excited about the opportunity to offer continued support to our Windows customers as the Windows Pro Audio community begins the gradual transition to the Vista era. Over the past year, we have worked directly with Microsoft’s Vista team to prepare for this release.
    Currently, M-Audio does not offer Vista drivers or Vista software updates (beta or otherwise). As soon as Vista drivers or updates for any product are available, this FAQ and other portions of our Web site will be immediately updated to reflect this. Due to the nature of software and driver development, we are not able to provide exact dates or timeframes for when specific drivers will become available—but please rest assured that supporting Vista is a top priority for us.
    As Vista drivers become available they will be posted to our Drivers page. If a driver is offered during the beta (pre-release) phase of its development, you will need to click the “Show Beta Drivers” option on the Drivers page in order to view and download that particular driver.
    We thank you for your patience during this exciting period of change in the Windows community.
