How to make JO work in Vista x86 RTM.

Copy PunkBuster folder from XP install. (\NovaLogic\Joint Operations Typhoon Rising\pb)

1.Install JO under Vista.
2.Install PunkBuster.
3.Delete pb folder (\NovaLogic\Joint Operations Typhoon Rising\pb).
4.Copy pb folder from XP install.
5.Right click shortcut to JO -> Properties -> Compatibillity, check "Run this program in compatibillity mode"
Choose "Windows XP (Service Pack 2)". Check "Run this program as an administrator"

The same applies for JO:ESC, just do step 5, but with JO:ESC shortcut.

If you have a NVIDIA card, disable DDI Threading to prevent glitches an artifacts.

Disable DDI Threading:

In [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Direct3D]
right click -> new DWORD value -> enter "DisableThreadedDDI"
Double click the entry and give it a Hex value of 1.
