I just bought a new laptop with Vista Home Premium (32-bit / SP1) When I try to run MSEurope it tells me that there are incompatibility issues with MS and Vista. However, it gives me the option of running the game. I tried running it once and it was fine, but when I exited MS my laptop started acting weird (this was fixed with a restart). So my question basically is: is MS really incompatible with Vista? If so, how was I was to run it? And if I continue to play MS, will it hurt my laptop in any way? Those who are playing MS with Vista, please provide your input . Thanks...

No, it's not compatible with Vista. Therefore I play MapleStory on Vista.

i just ignored it, and clicked the thingy so it doesnt remind me again. No problems so far after 3 weeks of play on my dell studio 17. Windows Vista 64bit Home premium. It could be possible that your "laptop started acting weird" was not due to maple, but perhaps something else? perhaps faulty installed software, or such...etc.

I'm sorry, but I am tired of people blaming that MS doesn't work or lags or dc's cause it is Vista. I have Vista and it works perfectly fine for me. On-topic - Try to run as admin, or try to run as system32 (right click and click properties)

May be not Vista, may be it is Dell Netbook Mini 12 where only bones (without dress) of maple story characters can be seen

same thing happened to me, but with out the computer acting weird after, the msg should go away later, and maple has been made compatible since 1 or 2 months after vistas came out
