I haven't gotten that far, GTL worked when It was on a system I "upgraded"
to Vista, but I have heard because of Starforce, it might not work when
installed natively on Vista (IE New, on vista). You might play with the
"run as" I do NOT know. Time to get rFactor up on this vista machine, maybe
I will get time to xperiment with GTL. Right now though, Vista and my older
AGP 7800GS Geforce dont get along with nvidia drivers, so I am dual booting
ATM.

GTL won't run on Vista unless you apply a patch for Starforce.
There's a Vista-friendly Starforce patch on the protection-maker's
website somewhere.

I was over at the Starforce site today and see they have removed their
forums. Bummer, I was looking for some cheap entertainment.
