While I don't have the initial release of Halo for Windows, I do have Halo:
Combat Evolved for Windows. It runs VERY well in Vista. In fact, the
graphics performance is MUCH smoother and faster under Vista than it was under
XP.

Hi, mine too, looks fabulous on my 24" widescreen after I found out how to
put vidmode into the exe. Even puts itself into 'games'.

Halo CE runs great on Vista Home Premium, which is more than I can say for
CoD2 or BF2. Get your act together Microsoft!!

CoD2 and BF2 are titles put out by Activision and EA, not Microsoft. Windows
Vista appcompat work did include both of these titles along with many
others, but if the publisher issues a new patch then it is pretty much up to
them to make sure it continues to work on the OS.

BF2 has worked fine for me on Vista since the Beta versions. Loaded maps a
hell of a lot faster than XP did too.

CoD2 works fine on my Vista HPE system. Have no idea what troubles you are
having.
