I have windows vista home edition. And, a 19 inch wide screen monitor. So if I set the setting for the auto to 1024/768 the screen is almost completely taken up.. And, I can not click off the auto. And, all of the Deluxe games I have Poppit Show, Tri-Peaks 2, Mahjong, and Lottso. The auto says invalid device context (DC) handle. None of them will do anything I have sent tsr reports and I dont know is this just vista doing it or is it my computer or are there some settings that will make this better. I own all the autos for all of them but they are worthless if they are not going to work on vista. Please help me Homer. Thanks Teresa
I had this problem too, you need to take you setting to like 1280 by1024. That is alway to the right on my setting. Your game will be small enough to use the auto. Destiny
Thats where I put it and that is what it is saying I got the tri-peaks 2 to run one time on it and it never had since it always brings up that invalid device context (DC) handle on the auto now. and I just dont get it. cause no one else is saying anything about them not working on vista other than me..

Try switching to windows classic mode and see if that does anything for you
Homer that works great for all except the Mahjong Garden Deluxe it goes around and clicks on all of them but matchs none of them.. Is that an on going problem or something I need to summit. Thanks so much again Homer you are awsome.. Teresa

Not sure but it never hurts to submit a tsr
Make sure you have the latest version
Teresa,
I just read your post about Mahjong Deluxe. When you play make sure you go into options and uncheck Full Screen, Video Acceleration and Enhanced Cursor. I don't know if this will help you or not. I have Vista and this is what I had to do to get mine to work right...plus I played in Windows Classic mode as Homer suggested.

Thanks Sassy I have the full screen off but taking off the enhanced curser and video acceleration made it play thanks so much for everyones help you all are great. Teresa
You're welcome, Teresa...you will be ranked out before you know it know. I was so frustrated until I figured it out. You don't need all of those checked, it just slows it down.
