It works for me ( I use Vista Home Premium ) . Just install the 1.01 JKA patch, JA+ and you should be fine

Works fine, even better you can actually minimize it when using vista which is very useful... you have to fiddle around a bit to do it though.

If it still doesn't work for you Fazz let me know. I've had a couple of problems with jka and vista and I've worked them out.

Don't forget to go to properties and click run in compatability with windows xp and the run as admin box. Also disable dynamic lights from the in game menu.

what does 'VM_Create on UI failed' mean?

You're getting that message, if I remember correctly, cuz you need you to turn User Account Control off. Once you do that, it'll work just fine ^^

As Shin said, if run in compatibility mode set to Windows XP that will get around the "VM_Create on UI failed" error also.
