Playing Maple Story

How can i make my computer compatible to maple story? Because when i try to
play it, there is always a pop-up that tells me that i can't play maple
because my window isnt compatible. I want to know if there is a way to fix
this problem. Can someone help me?? I have windows vista and the maple
requirement is windows xp. I would greatly appreciate it if someone can help
me. Thanks

Try right-clicking on the icon or shortcut for Maple Story, clicking
Properties. Then in the new window that opens, click on the Compatibility
tab and try running the program in compatibility mode for Windows XP.

Try running it then to see if that will get around the version check.

Doesn't MapleStory use GameGuard? If it does that might be the problem...
check MapleStory support.
