My Worms Armaggedon/Party Experience [Vista]

[xxItachixx]

Ok so im on Vista and i tryed playing with Armageddon..

~Armaggedon~

Installed Game, Updated the game..

Problems
- Color Glitch
- When clicking create single/Multiplayer Game, kicks me out the game.

Fix
- Have WA directory opened fix the color glitch
As for the other problem, i have no fix


~Worms World Party~

Problems
- Color Glitch


Fix
- Have WWP directoy opened



So from both, WWP worked the best since i dont get kicked out of the game when trying to make a Single/Multi game

I can play it in a nice high resolution as well, i guess ill be playing WWP till Armageddon 4.0 comes out =/



Oh im running on

- Vista Home Premium
- AMD Athlon 64 X2 4600+
- 2 GB RAM
- Sapphire Radeon X1950 Pro "512MB PCI-e"

Vista Home Premium 64-bit or 32-bit? (Just thought it might me a bit helpful for some people including me if I ever consider upgrading to Vista [unlikely])

[xxItachixx]

Vista Home Premium 32 Bits, when i bought this PC...Vista was a little buggy..

So i formatted and used the Upgrade CD to do a clean install doing the "trick"..

Now everythings working smooth for now.


I dont know, everytime i buy a new PC, i tend to do a clean install..it gets rid of all the problems and junk programs.

Nah, Vista is much more than that..

Its like a fusion of Linux/XP and i always liked linux due to the nice glossy interface. Alot people complain bout Vista but i yet to encounter problems. Yeah i did found some but thats when i bought the pc new...after i did a format and fresh install...everythings fine. It helps get rid of crappy software from manufactures and or any glitches that may have happened. If you dont know wtf your doing or dont know crap bout PCs...you gonna be complaining alot bout the OS. It does suck alot power..i give you that. But im sure if we ever get a service pack 1 or 2, everything will be polished out, but nothings perfect.
