Vista version for SW development

Hello everybody.
My company is a manufacturer and distributor of medical devices, specialized
in Cardiology and Neurology fields.
We are currently facing the SW development and debug under Windows Vista.
We noticed different behaviours among different versions of Vista.
Is there any "reference" Vista version to develop our software on?
A version such that, if the SW runs on it, it will run on all versions.
As far as we saw, Vista Home seems to be more critical.

Thanks to everybody.

You want to be aware of the UAC status, and test for version. Using
Authenticode to sign your app will let you run most installs.
Any program (such as an installer) that requires administrative rights,
either due to legacy setup detection or to having a manifest that specifies
the requested execution level as policy settings, such as 'User Account
Control: Only elevate executables that are signed and validated', can also
prevent your installer from functioning if you do not sign your executable
file using Authenticode.
