I'm new to Vista and haven't disabled UAC yet so am in the midst of
enduring all those nagging UAC pop-up boxes. Recently installed a
talking dictionary application dated from the 16 bit Windows era
(1994) and to my surprise there wasn't a single glitch or pop-up.
There are no pop-ups when opening it either and it actually works
better on Vista than XP. Starts instantly on Vista, takes forever to
start on XP as though XP is debating whether it should let it run.
Didn't have to make any compatibility changes, nothing, worked great
"out-of-the-box". Are you telling me that this program was properly
signed from back in 1994? I find that hard to believe.
Another surprise was a remote control software package from the late
nineties. Vista insisted that the package wasn't compatible with it
all through the installation but gave the option to continue....Bottom
line, it installed properly and now works better on Vista than XP. No
pop-ups, no compatibility adjustments required, nothing.
Wonders never cease.
