He Lies.
Darkspace is perfectly available on Vista aswell as XP, Just install it as you would XP, Just make sure your client etc is set to "Run as Administrator"
- On another note if it starts bugging you with the UAC, Either Disable it, Or Use something else than program files.

To get DarkSpace to run properly on Windows Vista, you need to find the installation directory (by default this is C:Program FilesPalestarDarkSpace) and find all of the .exe files.
These should be:
Client.exe
ClientSetup.exe
DarkSpace.exe
Editor.exe
GCQL.exe
LocalServer.exe
MirrorUpdate.exe
MissionView.exe
Server.Exe
SmartUpdate.exe
SuperServer.exe
Select them all, then Right Click on one of the files and select Run as Administrator.
Once this is set, you should be able to log into the GameCQ Lobby and manually select the red Update diamond to get the latest game files.
I hope this helps.
