I got an error saying it's for an earlier version of Windows..
Anyone knows of a way to play Chaos Theory on Vista?
Thanks.

You can attempt to use the Application Compatibility Toolkit to get it to work. Not sure how to access it from the current version, maybe right click on the shortcut/executable for the game and look for compatibility link there or under 'properties'.
Microsoft's latest version of the ACT is 5.0 and you can download it HERE (http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkID=82101). That link is from around March '08, so there may be newer information on it. You can always go to Microsoft's website and search for 'Vista Application Compatibility Toolkit'.
EDIT:
Nevermind, that link is just for a program that 'evaluates' a program for compatibility, not for setting a program's compatibility!
EDIT 2:
Instead try this (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/935280/) HERE (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/935280/) from July 2007, if your auto update hasn't already installed it.

Hate to double post, but I was afraid that you might not get my 'edits' to the previous post.
I found a link on the Microsoft site for "How to troubleshoot program compatibility in Windows Vista" HERE (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/927386/en-us). I'd suggest trying Method 2 as listed on that page.
Hope this gets you running!

Running in a compatibility mode doesn't do the trick..
After searching on the forum and on other websites, many suggest downloading the StarForce driver for it to work, actually when installing the game Windows suggested it as well..
I did download the StarForce driver yet it says "No installed protection drivers found to update".. http://forums.ubi.com/images/smilies/16x16_smiley-sad.gif
