WG Manager and Vista

Post by banjaxster »

I got the WG manager to work on vista without any patch,I just right clicked on the install exe and set the compatability to windows 98 and checked the box run as administrator.
The message center wouldn't update until I took the dll it needed(it was missing) from my old computer and put it in the vista windows system folder.
It seams some dll's dont get installed automaticly with vista, just adding them manually fixes it.
Runs real fast and works just fine.
