My question is regarding operating systems. In the past I have used XP and not had any problems, but I will be changing to either Vista or windows 7 in the near future and I was wondering if there will be any problems running the game. Does anyone know?

Thanks a lot for any answers.

There is a FAQ linked from the reference thread. E-License requires you to "Run As Administrator" once, and the game itself expects to write to the folder it is installed to which neither Vista nor Windows 7 (nor XP for non-Administrator accounts, but those were rare), so you either need to install outside of Program Files, or change the security on that folder to let you write to it.
