So, I've tried to read posts to figure this out but I'm not convinced so I better ask:

1. If I buy Worms 2 and Worms Armageddon, will it work with Vista? Or is it gonna be a lottery?

2. Do I have the right Intel and God knows what else that I need? I have a Vaio TZ21 http://reviews.cnet.co.uk/laptops/0,39030091,49293932,00.htm

3. Do I need to download some updates or anything else to get the games to work? If so, exactly what and how?

Conclusion: should I bother buying the games? (Honestly. I'm sure you want my money but still.)

Cheers,
v

Worms 2 is unsupported. Worms Armageddon works fine in Vista - there are a few problems with their workarounds. Check the Troubleshooting FAQ (http://worms2d.info/Troubleshooting_FAQ) for more information. Assuming you have a working Internet connection during installation, the only thing you need is the 3.6.29.0 Beta update installer (http://wa.team17.com/main.html?page=supp&area=upda&file=15). I believe 3.6.29.0 resolved any compatibility issues with Intel mobile graphics chipsets.
