    I have been trying to install Sonic Riders on Vista but with no luck..
    When I press the install game button the wizard either crashes or closes down without doing anything..
    I have installed the direct x that the game provides but still nothing.
    When I run the game on XP the wizard runs ok..
    Do you know what might be the problem? Is this game only for XP? Am I doing something wrong?
    Thank you in advance for your assistance!

    Have you tried running the installer as administrator? Right click the installer and choose Run As Administrator
