If you do a search you'll see that someone already did. Though obviously if
someone hosted a website might be easier.

BF2 works fine, So doesn't BF1942 and 2142, so if you can't get it to work,
then it's a problem on your end. There is even threads in htis group about
some odd behavior people are having with it, but it defiantely works. How
about you give a list of games you're wondering about. Also, how about some
system specs

But I'll give you the list of games that I've played for at least 1 hours,
in most cases, at least 3-5 hours

FEAR and FEAR XP(version 1.07 and 1.08)
Battlefield 1942(1.6) and Desert Combat
Battlefield 2 (1.41)
Battlfield 2142 (patch 1.10 and 120)
Warcraft 3 (patch 1.21)
Doom 3 (1.2-1.31)
Halflife 2:EP1
Counter-Strike 1.6
Counter-Strike Source
Dawn of War: Dark Crusades
Age of Empires 3, only played like 1 level of that though (no on-line play).
Far Cry (1.4)and Far Cry 64(1.32)
Quake 2 (later patched to 3.20)

The girlfriend has played
The Sims Life stories
SIMS2
Hoyle Card games
Mahjong Masters

If I can find my DVD, I believe Lord of the Rings, Battle for Middle Earth 2
will work.

There is a new set of nVidia drivers out, I would start with them. Vista has
really smeared nVidia's good name in terms of driver support. Even the new
101.41 drivers are beta, so you're mileage may vary on how well it works.

Also, sounds like you're right at the place where the videos play. I'd try
going into \BattleField2\Mods\BF2 and renaming the movies folder to see if
that gets you to at least to the login screen.

Download the new NVIDIA drivers that came out today. That may fix your
problems.

Also, Flight Sim 2004 works, as does CoD2.

I just got a brand new Custom built HP PC (not for me) delivered on Wed, and
the drivers they shipped for the nVidia 7300LE is from Nov 2006. I can
assure you that while those drivers will work for basic things, those are
not ideal for gaming. Heck even the Drivers released yesterday are not 100%
perfect yet. Though I see alot happier nVidia owners from some of the posts.

Not that the HP PC with the 7300LE is for gaming, but if those drivers are
that old, I'd expect your drivers to be equally outdated.

This link might be helpful, provides quite a decent list of compatable/non
compatabile software including games, on different versions of vista.
