Re: windows 7 and gaming

pretty much if it can run on vista it will run on win7 since win7 is based off vista with only minor differences.

It's much more than "minor differences". Having said that, the game should work. However, if there happened to be any problems with compatibility, Win 7 will have an available xp mode (virtual machine).

I think that is only available in Win 7 Pro and Bus and Ultimate. I think they are removing XP support in Win 7 Starter/Home/Prem.
