From the other thread you started, the demo you have won't work either way, the patch is required for XP compatibility as well as potential Vista compatibility.

Unless you want to try emulating a Win9x machine inside Vista using virtual machine software or dual boot an older Windows version, but both are quite a bit of effort when buying a CD should work.

no, it won't work if you run it as "windows xp sp2"
its quite hard to make a game work on vista unless you go find some drivers and patches

IT will work on some Vista machines. It's mainly the graphic drivers being holey and incomplete, especially DirectDraw.
