    I can't help but wonder what the heck is this game patch doing that it needs to effect core system files. I guess that's one way for Microsoft to market Vista. Upgrade to Vista or risk games crippling your older operating systems.

    Noob programmers, obviously.

    If you run Vista you should be fine. Only XP users who installed the ~600MB Trinity graphics patch should be affected.

    My IGN is gazarsgo ... I'm in Einherjar Rising, harassing Smashkill, Roadkill, and Pure in Geminate ... what about you?
